Cargo e-bike review: Swoop ASM's auto-shift is smart but not smooth
The Swoop ASM is a steel-framed long-tail cargo e-bike with a Shimano automatic transmission that selects gears based on rider input. In testing, the system made sensible gear choices but executed shifts with noticeable roughness, though riders can disable it. Beyond the auto-shift feature, the bike offers a comfortable ride with front suspension and a low rear wheel for stable cargo handling.
