JackRabbit MG Cargo - Lightweight Cargo Electric Bike, Black
Description
The JackRabbit MG Cargo redefines what a cargo electric bike can be - weighing just 55 lbs while carrying up to 500 lbs of balanced payload, it hauls nearly 10 times its own weight and holds the title of lightest cargo ebike with the highest payload capacity available. Powered by a 749W cargo-geared rear hub brushless motor and a 720Wh battery, it delivers 20 mph of 100% electric performance with an unlockable 24 mph Off-Road Mode and 48+ miles of range. Unlike traditional cargo ebikes that tip the scales at 80+ lbs and demand a dedicated storage room, the MG Cargo folds flat to just 8 inches wide in seconds - slim enough for a hallway, a closet, or the trunk of your car.
Built for parents, commuters, and anyone with a packed schedule, the MG Cargo handles grocery runs, gear hauls, and school pickups with equal confidence - including compatibility with the Thule Yepp 2 Maxi child seat and the JackRabbit Copilot Kit. A mullet wheel design with 20" rear and 24" front street tires, 2-piston hydraulic brakes, dual LED lights, and 10+ standard attach points make this bike as capable as it is practical. Ships nearly pre-assembled - just attach the front wheel and handlebars, and you're riding within minutes.

FAQ
How much does the JackRabbit MG Cargo weigh, and how much can it carry?
The MG Cargo weighs just 55 lbs - making it the lightest cargo ebike in its class. It supports up to 500 lbs of balanced payload (rider plus cargo combined), which works out to nearly 10 times its own weight. For reference, the RadWagon 5 weighs 86 lbs and carries only 375 lbs.
Can the MG Cargo fit in my apartment or small home?
Yes. The MG Cargo folds flat to just 8 inches wide in seconds, making it slim enough to stand in a hallway, slide into a closet, or store alongside furniture. At 55 lbs, one person can easily move and position it without assistance - a task that's impractical with most 75-90 lb cargo bikes.
Can I transport the MG Cargo in my car without a hitch rack?
Yes. With the front wheel and handlebars removed - no tools needed, in under a minute - the MG Cargo fits in the trunks and middle seats of most cars, SUVs, camper vans, and minivans. Most competing cargo bikes require a hitch-mounted rack or a truck bed for transport.
Is the MG Cargo compatible with child seats?
Yes. The MG Cargo's rear rack is compatible with the Thule Yepp 2 Maxi child seat - one of the most widely used ebike child seats on the market. It's also compatible with the JackRabbit Copilot Kit, which converts the rear rack into a full kid-ready setup. Always follow Thule's installation guidelines for safe use.
How difficult is it to assemble the MG Cargo out of the box?
The MG Cargo ships nearly fully assembled. Simply attach the front wheel and click in the handlebars - no tools, no app, no setup instructions required. Most riders are on the bike and riding within 5 minutes of opening the box.
What is the range of the MG Cargo, and can I extend it?
The MG Cargo delivers 48+ miles of range on a single charge from its 720Wh lithium-ion battery. Actual range varies based on rider weight, cargo load, terrain, and assist level. An optional swappable extra battery (the RangeBuster) is available separately to extend your range without waiting to recharge.
Does the MG Cargo require proprietary accessories?
No. The MG Cargo's 10+ attachment points are compatible with standard pannier bags, baskets, and cargo accessories you may already own. JackRabbit also offers its own purpose-built accessories that install without tools, but you are never locked into a proprietary ecosystem.
What safety certifications does the MG Cargo carry?
The MG Cargo's battery is tested and compliant with UL2271 and UL2272 safety standards. The bike itself is compliant with CPSC (CFR - Title 16 - Part 1512) regulations. It is also IPX4 water resistant, protecting against rain and water splashes during normal riding conditions.
