![Riese and Müller Load 60 2021 eBike Overview [CC]](/img/1.gif)
I ordered my Load 75 (with 2 child seat and rain canopy)recently and I’m looking forward ! It’s an expensive bike obviously but I’m gonna sell my old little car ( way cheaper...)and no more gasoline to buy. I’m living in a small town in North of France with a lot a cobblestone streets. I was looking for a full suspension cargo bike with a “true” rain canopy. Compare to previous rain canopies this one seems to fit for tall kids. Merci beaucoup for reviewing those Riese and Muller cargo bikes guys ! Great job.
That sounds awesome! I wish I could go for a ride with you, France is beautiful... the suspension will be perfect for the cobblestone ;)
hi there did you bought it?? i m base also north west of france in normandy and like you i have 2 small kids and i m looking for a box bike like that one but the price is quiet expensive.. my question forthe kids they have enough space???? for 2
Bonjour, vous habitez dans la région HautsDeFrance? Je pense à déménager dans votre région bientôt, qu'est-ce que vous pensez de votre achat de Load75? Merci pour votre réponse.
If I lived in a city or somewhere with great bike infrastructure and indoor, secure bike parks then I would absolutely get one as a car replacement. I really want to try one out but I don’t see how I can. Maybe if there are rentals somewhere.
I went to the convenience store the other day and I chose not to take a pannier bag and thought I could fit everything in my backpack. I ended up almost breaking the zip on the bag trying to get everything in. With a bike like these, you could just casually toss in a few bags of groceries without thinking about it. Makes such a huge difference.
I really like these in depth reviews! Keep up the good work!
What a fun day in Long Beach with the 135 pound big, fun loving kid!
Very nice, and the price is really very reasonable if you compare it to any kind of automobile alternative. With all the capacity, the Load 75 competes with a small car - with no expense for gas or insurance. We have a Bullitt E8000 (which costs close to the same), and love this kind of transport. Quite envious of the R+M suspension!
Thanks for the great review! I'm riding a Babboe city mountain. About 6000 km a year. My dream bike is a reise & müler load bike with full suspension and speed version. Thanks for giving life to my dream! Best regards from Denmark!
epic beach segment..looks amazing
Just ordered a Vario75 2 days ago, 3-seat option with the canopy. Seemed to be one of the only bikes that fits 3 kids properly under the rain-hood. Love the leg-rest for the kids, putting the seat-bench on the floor of the box (e.g. Bullit, Douze 800) was not too appealing to my 3+1yr olds. Will have to wait and see how it pans out with larger sidewalk edges, since the ride height is reduced by 10cm. As the "foot-box" is supposedly made from steel, there might be the benefit of guarding the steering rod, though. Can't wait, delivery time is 8 weeks even here in Germany.
Now that a really decent bike site finally reviewed it (and did a great job doing so btw), our decision to go with the most expensive one is a lot easier to take (altough a Douze would've come out pretty close). Ditching one of our cars for the bike, tho, so price was indeed not the main issue (this time) :D
Only downside for us might be, that the tarpaulin will most likely not fit over the headrest of the third seat. Will have to talk to R&M about this in the future. Or does Chris know something about this?
Cheers,
Flo from Hamburg
i guess im asking randomly but does any of you know a tool to get back into an instagram account??
I stupidly lost my account password. I love any assistance you can offer me
@Manuel Justice Instablaster :)
@Saul Castiel i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and im trying it out atm.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Saul Castiel It worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much, you really help me out :D
@Manuel Justice Glad I could help xD
Amazing bike, amazing scenery! Best wishes from Yorkshire!!!
Hi Peter! Glad you enjoyed it, best wishes to you too :D
Love the bike path ride! Looks a bit similar to Melbourne bay area around St Kilda - which I imagine would be great to have easy access to for walking and riding.
quedecree it is quite nice. One of the many reasons we chose Long Beach for our second store. I ride the path regularly on my own and with visitors. Be sure to come say hey if you’re ever in town.
This is my dream bike. Thanks for covering it!
Absolutely, it’s a privilege :D
I think the rad burro would be a awesome touring, cargo, utility bike/trike setup and could be setup for solar power too....that’s my opinion
Tested Load 75, Load 60 and Packster 40. Love all three. Can only afford one... 😂
This I can see the value in, I've got two fairly big dogs and this would certainly fit the bill, it's a shame that I couldn't buy here in Ireland because of the power rating being so high.
Nice review Court.
Hmm, I think that Riese & Müller sells a Class 1 model in Europe that goes 25km/h that would work in Ireland, I don’t know any specific shops but maybe the official R&M website dealer map could help :)
This is like going back in time ,the difference being the bike has a battery,when these type of bike was used by the local butcher boy doing deliveries,and the bakers delivering rolls, bread 🥖 🥯
love that display, bosch...keep that as an option for more bikes please!
Lately the series seems to have turned into a Chris Nolte, travel companion / sponsor / interview partner series. Not that I mind - at all. Just appears to have switched to this as the default format. :)
Also - dog footage, always a plus. And - the dog still has the AWD advantage over the bikes too.
Perhaps what you’re seeing is partially me just having more fun... I’ve had a service fee in place for about a year now as a test and was working on how to communicate it clearly. Chris is my real life friend and I feel like I learn a lot from him when we talk. I’ve been asked not to interrupt so much (by other comments) so these go a bit longer. I’m also happy with the evolving format but it’s nice to get feedback :)
@@ElectricBikeReview Appreciate your work Court!
What's bugging me a bit is that most bikes only support a person up to 250 pounds - sometimes only 200. I wish they would offer some models that support up to at least 300 pounds. With E-Bikes there are XXL Bikes but I haven't found cargobikes that have that option.
I think overweight people who want to be more active should have the option to buy a bike that doesn't fall apart after some years.
Great for the city but on reflection why not tour the US with your tent etc..always pay more for better quality..great bike..
Hi I just purchased a load 75 touring We just relined the cargo area with kevlar If my calculations are correct I should be able to carry 350-400 lbs We plan to take the machine wild boar hunting in the florida everglades I am soon taking Delivery of a Rad cargo bike On day 1 we plan on cutting the frame We plan to merge a 48" cargo bin Next we are installing a motorcycle air fork wide enough to mount 2 20" wheels with 750 watts bafangs on each This give us 2250 watts of power and super reinforced kevlar compartment to haul 3 dead stinky boars I am tryng to get pigman on the hunt and would love to hire EBR to video the madden hunt as review of my machine We love having 2 less tail pipes in our everglades I think this gould repace a ATV In New York they haul vintage vino In florida we haul dead stinky pigs I think this will be a big testerone boost for you boy If your company is interested contact No carbon foot print pig hunting camp Lets go Brandon
I really love theses updates I wish they will offer some like the electronic bell on my 2017 Packster 60 I heard that they will push an update for the CX motor better walks assist and some other tuning. Very good review but now I kind of want to replace mine with a Load 75. Can you tell us what is the system with the rear light automatic brake light?
We’re trying to work on an aftermarket horn kit. The horn manufacturer is Spanninga. The brake lights on this bike are the Tektro Auriga E-Comp HD-E500 with brake light switches connected to a Supernova M99 taillight.
Hey, one configuration they don’t seem to offer is the front (rear facing) seat, but without the two back (forward facing) seats. We have one child and a dog. I wonder if they’d offer that configuration on request?
It looks so cool, and Chris’ family is sweet to join in. I live in the Bay Area, but want to buy from Chris since he’s been so active in promoting R&M. Might have to figure that out!
Richard Bullwinkle hey! It’s not a configuration offered direct from R&M but it’s definitely possible by removing the back seat. I imagine your dealer could find a way to work with you on that.
It’s really kind of you to express interest in working with Propel and me ;) although we do work with many remote customers we usually try to recommend local dealers if good options exist. You happen to have a great R&M dealer nearby in SF called the New Wheel. I’d recommend you reaching out to them. They should have their demo of this bike arriving soon if you wanted to test it out.
I hope that’s helpful. Happy riding!
I like this bike! I will wait till R&M make Rohloff version of it.
Love this bike, sadly SoCal bike infrastructure is lacking so bad. Renders this bike unusable unless you feel suicidal.
I'd like to see a review on the Larry v. Harry Bullitt e8000 cargo bike!
Hi, is it possible for an adult passenger (average size) to sit front forward, which seems more natural ? I was wondering why you sit the other way..
Fun review to watch!!
What's your height? I wonder if a 5 feet person can sit comfortably on the front bench. Do you know what the max weight cargo capacity is for load 75?
I am thinking of getting this bike as a means of transporting my whole family i.e. kid + wife.
Hey, love your review, is the steering and overall driving experience of the 75 much different to the 60? Would you recommend the vario HS? does it give a similar sportive ride? thank you so much for all your videos, those are amazing.
I have spent a good amount of time on both and the 75 handles very similar, but you need to anticipate the turns a bit more on the 75 due to its length. Otherwise, it feels similarly sportive. Since my cargo carrying needs are pretty small at the moment I am mostly riding the 60, but if I had kids I would hands down ride the 75. The Touring will be a little more sporty, but the Vario is great to have a little lower maintenance and a smoother shifting experience.
Great review. Thanks!
In Canada how old your children has to be before they can get on in the cargo compartment?
Is there any reason why they don't run a front dyno hub? To me it would make sense and leave the battery just for propulsion. Good review as usual.
The lights draw very little power and in this case with a front thru-axle there aren't too many dynamo options. It would increase the price significantly. You could just spend that money on an extra battery and have even more range ;)
Makes no sense. Dynamo hub is just another service possibility, building that hub on a small wheeel increase the price and the battery is exactly that. Basically you are taking energy already present and asking it to go throuhg a secondary energy system with plenty of loss n between and major price hike... Dynamo hub is best on human powered gravel adventure bike.
Amazing machine! Too expensive though. Get a Triobike or Bullitt with an aftermarket mid-drive for half this price!
Pure Water Window Cleaning if you factor in the costs of maintaining an aftermarket system with little support you might feel otherwise. After years of experience experimenting with similar solutions I know I have.
Also - keep in mind neither of those bikes are full suspension.
...or fit three kids relatively well.
All these ebike company's are not going to be in business in a year or two...no matter what you buy
Hey Court when are you doing videos on the new Magnum bikes.
Very nice
Nice to see our Americans friends getting into cargo bikes. Our UK-Cycleschemes really help us spread the costs. info: cyclescheme.co.uk
All it's missing is a glass dome and cup holders 😁
Can you do a video on how to ride an e bike for bigners tips?
Darn, euro law no throttle when you need it most to take off from stop or slow maneuvers. Deal killer especially for people with bad knees or disabilities.
Where can I find Chris' new shop? Is it open already?
Simon Wirsching we’re in the process of getting everything dialed in. We do have some demo bikes in the shop and we are available by appointment until we open which should be sometime next month.
Should organize a Ebike ride for opening day.
The guy looking for waterproof shoes might want to look at hiking boots.
Hmm, good point Tony. I wear hiking boots frequently and agree that they could be perfect for Chris (both guys are named Chris btw)
#nitpick - it's pronounced shval-beh not shwal-bee. In German the w is pronounced v and the second syllable is short and neutral.
Cool! Thanks for the tip!!
Prices are getting nuts, I would never spend that much on a e-bike. Even that. Come on,, e-bike a priced higher than a motorcycle? components to components cost? R&D?, yeah e-bikes are way over priced, massive profit.
BTW,,, thumbs up for that girl.
They'll be overpriced until the demand increases. This is just the way economics works :/
Isaiah besides the price is like this cuz its assembled in germany (where labour cost is one of the highest)
What a bike

i think if u have a triplet or twins thats the only way i see this rig usable... mainly the price tag. yikes...
You can't include in the price the fact you can enjoy the day. $8300 bucks is outrageous. The R & D, the construction, the materials does not warrant eight grand. They are assholes for charging that much.
www.trucktrike.com/product-features/ How about reviewing this Cargo bike? They build them for UPS. You could go camping or cross country with these bikes, even bring Rover.
Snap a real car replacement
Why not 83 thousand dollars? Add one more wheel , and make that price !
Its a minivan.
if only mo ey grew in trees
A mule is more cost effective
Tohunga Uwishin you don’t have to clean up after your bike though ;)
For that price, I think I'll stick to my Schwinn.
You guys talk to much leaving now
A 10 thousand dollar bike..............BUY A USED Electric CAR
