It is a proper longtail cargo bike that still feels natural to ride, even when the back is loaded with kids, bags, groceries or something awkward from the hardware store.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe addition of front suspension on the V4 and an improved steering dampener is something you can really notice. The bike feels more composed at higher speeds and smooths the roughest roads likes it's no ones business.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe low 20\" rear wheel keeps the load closer to the ground, which helps the bike feel stable with passengers or cargo on board. The 26\" front wheel gives it a familiar steering feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bosch Cargo Line Smart System motor gives more refined support at lower speeds, offering instant support on hills and at greens lights when fully loaded. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Spicy Curry V4 backs up the Bosch motor with Magura MT Thirty hydraulic disc brakes, with a 4-piston front brake and 2-piston rear brake for confident stopping power when the bike is loaded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 24px 0 10px 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eBest for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a great option for families who want one bike to handle the school run, daycare drop-off, supermarket missions and weekend wandering. It has room for kids, cargo, dogs, trailers and the general logistics of everyday life, while still feeling like something you can happily ride every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is the kind of cargo bike that can grow with the family, backed by the long-term parts and service support of the Bosch motor system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 24px 0 10px 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eWhat’s different from the Spicy Curry CLS?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe V4 is the latest version of the Spicy Curry, and the higher price comes from a more modern overall package rather than one single headline part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"118\" data-start=\"0\"\u003eRefined geometry. The V4 is slightly shorter overall than the CLS, with a shorter reach to the handlebar. That helps in two useful ways. First, it puts the rider in a more confident position over the front of the bike, which helps the steering feel more responsive and assured. Second, it makes the bike more manageable for shorter riders, which matters on a shared family cargo bike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe biggest change is the move to Bosch Smart System. The older CLS was a non-Smart System bike. The V4 keeps the Bosch Cargo Line motor support that made the Spicy Curry such a good loaded climber, but adds the newer Bosch ecosystem for app connection, updates and long-term platform support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe V4 also adds front suspension, which makes a real difference on rough streets, raised crossings, driveway lips, potholes and all the little hits that become more noticeable when you are riding with passengers or cargo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe integrated 500 Wh battery gives the frame a cleaner and more modern layout, while the updated Stay Steady Technology frame design is built around loaded stability, lateral stiffness and predictable handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Schwalbe Pick-Up tyres are cargo-specific, so they are a better match for loaded everyday riding than a general urban tyre. The Microshift Advent 9-speed drivetrain keeps things simple and practical, with a useful range for commuting, school runs and loaded city riding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe V3 was already a very good cargo bike. The V4 is not trying to reinvent it. It takes the same Spicy Curry idea and brings it up to date with a more comfortable, more integrated and more modern cargo-bike platform. It also comes with a host of updated accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 24px 0 10px 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 500 Wh battery gives useful daily riding margin for school runs, errands and loaded trips around town. Range will depend on rider, load, hills, wind, assist level, tyre pressure and how much snack cargo is on board, but the Bosch Cargo Line system is well suited to the stop-start reality of cargo riding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePassenger and cargo setups are where this bike really comes alive. Child seats, monkey bars, footrests, baskets, bags and trailer options can all change how the bike works for your household or business. We can help set it up properly rather than leaving you to guess from a wall of accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 24px 0 10px 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eChoose this if\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose the Spicy Curry V4 if you want the latest version of Yuba’s proven longtail cargo bike, with strong hill support, a modern Bosch system, front suspension and room to grow with your family or daily load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose a Tern GSD if compact storage and a shorter overall bike length matter more. Choose a front-loader if you want the cargo or kids in front of you rather than behind you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 24px 0 10px 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eOur take\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Yuba Spicy Curry V4 makes a lot of sense for Wellington. It has the low-load stability, hill support, braking control and carrying capacity that made earlier Spicy Currys such a strong family and business option, but now with the comfort and system updates we expect from a modern cargo bike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is not the cheapest way into cargo biking, and the older CLS still deserves respect. But if you want the newest Spicy Curry platform, the V4 gives you the cleaner frame, Bosch Smart System, front suspension and cargo-specific build that make the extra spend easier to understand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Yuba","offers":[{"title":"Hello Yellow","offer_id":47761425891520,"sku":"BKYU221","price":9850.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"True Blue","offer_id":47761425924288,"sku":"BKYU220","price":9850.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0791\/1071\/files\/Spicy-Curry-True-Blue-No-BG.webp?v=1771368968","url":"https:\/\/www.bicyclejunction.co.nz\/products\/yuba-spicy-curry-v4","provider":"Bicycle Junction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
