Utility e-bikes are great all-around options for those who value versatility. They can do a bit of everything—including carrying a bit of cargo—while having the handling characteristics and manageable sizing of a “regular” bike.

ChatGPT-integrated Carbon 1 Pro, aims to solve the aforementioned problems with the Carbon Joy.
