Riese & Müller The European alternative to Specialized / Trek (e-bikes)

Riese & Müller is a German manufacturer of e-bikes and cargo bikes, founded in Darmstadt in 1993. The model range covers trekking, city, and commuter e-bikes (Nevo, Charger, UBN, Homage), compact models (Tinker, Carrie), cargo bikes (Load, Multitinker, Packster, Transporter), and full-suspension performance bikes (Delite, Superdelite). Riese & Müller targets commuters, families, and businesses or public authorities with fleet or sharing solutions.

Headquarters, development, and final assembly are located in Mühltal near Darmstadt. Frames and components come in part from Asia, as is common in the industry, while final assembly and quality control take place in Germany. The company operates a factory outlet in Mühltal and a worldwide network of specialist dealers. Drive systems come primarily from Bosch (Germany).

Riese & Müller focuses on high-end e-bikes and cargo bikes for European everyday traffic and sells through certified specialist dealers. Specialized and Trek are US manufacturers with broader portfolios for sport and mountain biking. Cargo bikes are a core segment at Riese & Müller and more of a niche at the US brands. Service and warranty processing is centrally organised in Europe at Riese & Müller.
