Riese & Muller’s New eCargo Bike, the Packster 70 & Other Developments

German-based premium e-bike brand Riese and Muller announced the new Packster 70 back in late summer but it should now be arriving in dealers in the US – previously their Packster line of e-cargo bikes comprised three models, the 40, 60 and 80 with the numbers indicating the length of the load bed. The 60 and the 80 now disappear to be replaced with the 70 which has also had a design overhaul. R&M say it will carry up to three passengers in its secure EPP box and has a new ‘minimal turning circle, thanks to its cable-operated steering system, combined with maximum storage space’.

Comfortable Camping by Electric Bike – Part 3 w/ eCamping Tips

I’ve already covered an e-bike camping trip taking plenty of gear to make me comfortable in this post and this post.

For this second trip I took a Haibike Sduro Trekking 4.0 which looked a good choice on paper and a Radical Design Chubby trailer (reviewed here) to enable me to carry more gear than last time (and the Chubby also packed down well, as some train travel was involved).

An e-cargo bike would be a great alternative for heavy duty camping trips like this but as they are not allowed on UK trains one wasn’t suitable for this particular trip. 

I’d planned a three night break for myself and brother with even more creature comforts than last time, including a much bigger tent, the ability to cook basic meals and a solar-powered LED lighting and charging with the HUBi 2K from Solar technology.

Haibike Radius Tour Electric Bike Review Part 2: Ride & Range Test [VIDEO]

After many miles of testing the Haibike Radius Tour it has proven to be a powerful and sporty compact electric bike with impressive range. 

The powerful Yamaha PW 500 watt mid drive combined with the quick acceleration of the 20″ wheels give the Radius Tour a fun performance feel.

Its solid low step frame and wide Schwalbe balloon style tires give it a stable ride feel that is also easy to ride.
