Safely transport 1 -3 children, or all your goods & equipment every day!
Whether you wish to carry children, luggage for a spontaneous camping weekend, tools, goods or sports equipment, you’ll quickly find the right solution among the different front cargo options.
For children, their safety comes first. The Load4 60 can carry up to 2 smaller children, as side walls and two 5-point belts and a comfortable, cushioned seat position ensure relaxed riding around the town and countryside. The Load4 75 can carry up to 3 children on the front box, with 2 facing the front and 1 facing behind.
The various side wall and cover options provide additional front cargo box options, while a permitted total weight of up to 200 kg gives you a lot of freedom. Additionally the side rails of the Load4 can be utilised to carry other kinds of cargo, because any cargo can be ideally strapped to the rails.
For rear panniers, Add the rear carrier to hold up to a 15kg load limit!
Adjustable riding position
The Load4 can accommodate a range of rider height from 1.5m to 2.0m+ comfortably, woth a standover height of 60cm. The angle and height adjustable stem, and saddle height can be changed in seconds to quickly swap between riders of different heights. Perfect for family use.
E-bike System & Motor
Bosch supplies one of the most reliable E-bike packages available for the Load4 with a Bosch Cargo Line Smart System motor and on-board computer.
The Bosch Cargo Line Speed (Smart System motor) is integrated into the bottom bracket of the bike, ensuring plenty of ground clearance and low centre of gravity. A Mid-Drive E-Bike provides a more enjoyable riding experience compared to a hub motor. It’s the difference between feeling like you’re riding a normal bike, as opposed to being pulled by horses.
E-bikes do not use a throttle accelerator like a traditional motorcycle. Instead the driving force is applied as you turn the pedals, contribute to a smooth application of the available power. The harder you push on those pedals, the more power your motor will put out to help you.
Sensors in the motor report to the control unit the power, speed and cadence so that the motor can apply the best power curve to support your riding.
However when you stop pedalling there is a minimal amount of friction due to Bosch’s consistent engineering improvements so you won’t be bogged down when you stop pedalling.
All Riese & Muller bikes come equipped with a walk assist function that enables riders to walk along with their bike at 6km/hr which is perfect if you have to push the loaded bike up a steep hill.
Maximum speed of assistance in Australia is 25km/hr.
The Cargo Line (Smart System) motor provides up to 400% of pedal assistance accessed via 4 different modes of assistance while 85NM of torque will get you up Sydney’s Hills
Control technology
Rear suspension on the Load4 means you’ll have perfect traction on any terrain, even at high speeds. It will also help you feel more comfortable on rough road conditions. Pairing this with powerful Tektro TRP C 2.3 cargo hydraulic disc brakes means you’ll have no trouble navigating any situation you find yourself in.
Light Technology
Seeing in low light and night time conditions is handled by the Supernova M99 Mini Pro headlamp. The rear Supernova M99 Tail Light features a brake light to keep you safe in high traffic areas.
Integrated Cockpit
The display on a Riese & Muller Bosch E-Bike is the control centre, enabling the rider to select between 4 pedal assist modes. The Bosch Smart System allows for configuration of those modes.
The Load 4 can be configured with the Intuvia100 or Kiox 300 display
Bosch Intuvia
The Intuvia Display gives the rider full control of their system as well as an overview at all times. Battery status, range, mileage totals, ride time, current motor power, time, speed and average speed are all displayed on an easy to see screen.
Bosch Kiox Cockpit
For performance riders, with optional pairing to a heart rate monitor via bluetooth. The display is scratch resistant and is easily read in sunlight. This model also features map-free navigation in conjunction with a smartphone.
