Tern Orox S12
Explore New Ground
The Orox adventure cargo bike defies extreme conditions to keep you going - no roads needed. This tenacious trooper packs up to two XL batteries to power you through extended off-grid explorations, and redefines what's possible by bike with a massive Max Gross Vehicle Weight of up to 210kg for best-in-class cargo bike capacity.
Go Anywhere
Travel back in time as you trace railroad remnants hidden in the woods to mining ghost towns, or journey through diverse landscapes that span from lush green valleys to the rugged pinnacles of desert badlands. With incredible range and power, Orox lets you freely go on adventures unlike any other.
Forget Range Anxiety
Equipped with an ultra-high capacity Bosch PowerPack and dual-battery compatible for double the juice, Orox truly frees you from the iron grip of range anxiety. Ride longer and head deeper into the backcountry with immense range at your disposal. There’s no holding back now.

Pack It Up
More than just a convenient cache for small essentials, the Frame Pack encases the forward battery to effectively insulate it against wind-chill and freezing temperatures. With the cold kept at bay, your battery stays warm and holds charge better.
Go Anytime
Day or night, come rain or shine—Orox is ready to roll when the mood strikes. Ride it year-round, through the dog days of summer and into the arctic embrace of winter. There’s no better way to experience the liberating outdoors than on a two-wheeler you can depend on.
And Bring It All
Packing for an adventure? Orox is best in class for hauling stuff, so you can bring what you really want—like that cast iron skillet the chef in you swears by.

Frame-Integrated TowBar
Turn Orox into a tow truck to bring everything you need, and more. The burly frame-integrated TowBar™ works with most trailer hitches so you can easily link a passenger, cargo, or pet trailer to your bike. Add the Tail Hitch XL to shift the trailer further back to make room for loaded panniers, or combine it with our Bike Tow Kit to bring an extra bike.
Built To Last
Our philosophy is to make bikes you’ll enjoy riding for years to come. We start with intentional design choices that make the bike durable, safe, and easy to service—such as using crucial components from top manufacturers like Bosch with their unbeatable service support. Then, we back it up with great local service and a 10-year limited warranty* for peace of mind.
*Available to riders who sign up for Tern Care.
