Living in a rural area means a big shop at the nearest large town, several very hilly miles away, is a job taylor-made for an e-cargo bike.

Enter Riese & Müller’s Packster 40 Nuvinci (from $6,219) which looked to fit the task perfectly. So when I was offered a trial I couldn’t wait to see how it handled shopping trips into town and city.
