An Aventon Abound LR. With three shopping bags inside the storage boxes for about 30kg of weight, but it was still nimble enough to do mixed-terrain riding on the way home. Since last April it has travelled 3200km without issue. Donkebike is the closest I'll get to having a pack mule.

It hasn't needed anything special yet, though I'm taking it in soon for an annual tune-up just to make sure. Every week or so I clean and lubricate the chain, readjust the brakes (the rear pad needs changed), check the wiring/battery frame/battery for water damage, and tighten all the bolts/electrical connections.
