Recall: Pack up the Packster

Riese & Müller has recalled the Packster 70 Electric Cargo Bike because the steering can fail.

The front pulley's clamping bolts may not be tightened properly and may allow the steering wire to slip.

If the steering wire slips, the rider will lose steering control. This may lead to an accident causing injury or death.

Consumers should stop using the bicycle and return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Each bicycle has an article number, serial number and frame number.

See list of identifying numbers for affected bicycles.

Traders who sold this product were:
  • Dolomiti Pty Ltd
  • Dutch Cargo Bike Pty Ltd
  • E-stralian Pty Ltd
  • Omafiets Dutch Bicycles Pty Ltd
  • Pemby Pty Ltd trading as Electric Bikes Brisbane

The bike was also sold online.

It was available for sale from 1 Feb 2021 - 6 Oct 2021.
