What is Max Gross Vehicle Weight?
The MGVW is the maximum weight that a bike has been designed to safely carry. This means the weight of the Bicycle* + Accessories + Rider(s)** + Cargo + Trailer*** must be less than the MGVW for safe riding.
*Bicycle = Refers to the weight of the bike plus battery.
**Rider(s) = Refers to weight of the cyclist and any passengers
***Trailer = Refers to weight of the trailer with no braking system AND weight of any cargo or passenger(s) on the trailer. Trailers with a braking system should not be included in the MGVW calculation.
Why does Max Gross Vehicle Weight matter?
It comes down to safety. By adhering to the bike's MGVW guidelines, riders can feel confident that the bike can safely handle the total weight in all riding conditions.
How much cargo weight can I carry on a Quick Haul Long?
To determine the maximum cargo weight you can carry on the Quick Haul Long, use the formula above. The Quick Haul Long has an MGVW of 190 kg (419 lb). From that, simply subtract the weight of the bike and any installed accessories, and the weight of the rider and any passengers on the bike.
If you are towing a trailer, don't forget to also subtract the weight of the trailer and any cargo or passenger(s) on the trailer. Note that trailers with an independent braking system should not be included in the MGVW calculation.
