Easy mount, internal 7 speed hub, chain guard, fenders, generator hub headlight, etc. Dreamy...
It's got all the bells and whistles you'd need for transportation/errands and it's right at $700. Don't know if the 7 gears would be OK for your hills, tho.
That's pretty cool, especially since it comes with so much that you often have to buy in addition to the bike. Depending on the Nexus hub, looks like it should do pretty well with the fixed gearing part being 42x21 (if I read the specs right).
