I've got a cargo e-bike that could handle a 50-mile round trip with a baritone sax just fine.

    Team cargo bike!

    I also have a cargo bike, the cannondale cargowagen which is a long tail format. This morning I used it to drop my 2x kids at day care and head in to the Library where I am now. Yesterday we went to the beach which was a round trip of 44km or so. It's just magnificent honestly.

    The furthest I've gone in a day with the kids is 54km. I estimate one battery would get us 70km, somewhat shy of the 50mi / ~80km round trip you mentioned. Mine does have a slot for a second battery though, which I don't have.

    I get that it's not for everyone, but for my uses a cargo bike is perfect. The pinnacle of human transport in 2025.
