Building upon the success of the Haul ST, the new Specialized Globe Haul LT model brings an exciting expansion to the collection. LT stands for Long Tail, and this aptly named feature immediately captures your attention. While retaining the core features that made the Haul ST a hit, the LT introduces an extended rear rack that sets the stage for even greater possibilities.

It’s the year of the cargo bike, and all the major bicycle brands are getting on board with Specialized offering some of the most exciting models of the year.

Haul LT Catering to A Diverse Lifestyle

As we’ve come to expect from the Specialized Globe collection, the Haul LT effortlessly adapts to a diverse range of lifestyles. Even if you’re part of a larger family with beloved companions, such as a golden retriever, the Haul LT accommodates your needs effortlessly. With an impressive carrying capacity of up to 441 lbs (including the rider), enhanced power, and a range of up to 60 miles, the Haul LT serves as your gateway to endless exploration.

Unleash Your Imagination

The Haul Collection from Globe continues to shape the evolution of urban transportation. Visualize a future where bicycles alleviate the burden of cars, reducing pollution and traffic congestion. By encouraging the shift of just 10% of daily car trips to bicycle journeys, we collectively contribute to substantial reductions in transportation emissions. The Haul LT represents the connection between you and a lifestyle centered around bikes, fostering more smiles, less traffic, and improved well-being.

Innovative Features That Define the Haul LT

As a part of the Globe Haul Collection, the Haul LT stands tall on the same pillars that define its predecessors:

  1. 772Wh Battery for Extended Adventures: Relish in journeys that extend up to 60 miles on a single charge, unveiling new horizons and possibilities.
  2. 700W Hub Motor for Endless Thrills: Conquer various terrains with the confidence of a robust rear hub motor, ensuring a smooth and exhilarating ride.
  3. 20×3.5 Tires for Unyielding Confidence: Traverse diverse landscapes with unwavering confidence, empowered by high-traction, wide-profile tires that handle all surfaces with ease.
  4. MIK Mounting System for Personalization: Elevate your biking experience by seamlessly attaching compatible accessories and gear, enhancing the practicality of your electric bike.
  5. Fenders with ‘Keep You Dry’ Flaps: Shield yourself from the elements while maintaining a clean ride, courtesy of thoughtfully designed fenders.

Redefined Adventures Await

Embrace the spirit of adventure, no matter the occasion, with the Globe Haul LT’s impressive versatility. Whether you’re embarking on spontaneous escapades or on comprehensive errand runs, the Haul LT has you covered. With a top speed of 28 mph and five levels of pedal assist, this electric bike effortlessly adapts to your journey’s demands. The carrying capacity ranges from 419 lbs on the ST model to an impressive 441 lbs on the LT version, including the rider.

The Haul LT is categorized as a Class 3 e-bike without a throttle, boasting a top speed of 28mph. Should you desire an extra boost, a plug-in throttle is available for purchase at $50 from Specialized. Once engaged, the throttle will propel the bike to 20mph through electric power alone, while adhering to the 28mph maximum pedal-assisted speed limit. Installing the throttle is a user-friendly process, or alternatively, a Specialized retailer can provide assistance. Activation can also be achieved through Specialized’s Globe smartphone app, enhancing convenience and control.

Other great accessories

Essential to any good cargo bike, the Haul LT comes with a number of accessories to add to the riding experience including adjustable cargo rails, cargo side bags and running boards.

Other accessories include: front rack, pannier adapters, passenger kit, wheel covers and more.

Price and Warranty 

Globe’s commitment to quality extends beyond innovation, offering owners peace of mind with a lifetime warranty on every Globe frame and a 2-year e-system warranty.

Haul LT retails for $3,500US.

One Bike for All

At the heart of the Haul LT lies a simplicity that transcends boundaries. Designed for universal fit, accommodating riders ranging from 4′ 5″ to 6′ 4″, the model eliminates barriers and enables everyone to join the ride. Small wheels maintain a low center of gravity, ensuring stability and a comfortable ride.

The Haul LT is firmly in the electric cargo bike mix alongside longtime faves such as Tern and Xtracycle and new entries from brands such as Trek and Aventon.
