Riese and Müller Transporter2 85

Riese & Müller Transporter2 85 electric cargo bike, London

The Transporter2 85 is R&M’s most accessible cargo bike — a front-loading box bike with an 85cm long load surface, Bosch Performance Line motor with 545Wh battery, Enviolo hub and Gates carbon belt drive option. It won International Cargobike of the Year, and riding one makes that easy to understand: the carrying capacity is serious, the build quality is unmistakably R&M, and it earns your trust quickly.

Who it's for

The Transporter2 85 is for anyone who needs serious cargo capacity and wants a bike that gets straight to the point — and for small businesses, tradespeople or community organisations who need a reliable daily workhorse. The 85cm long load surface handles bulky cargo, crates, equipment and a serious weekly shop with ease. For families carrying children, the Transporter2 65 is the right starting point — it has the child seat setup, the side door and the weather cover designed specifically for that use. The Transporter2 85 is built for cargo, and it shows.

Build & technology

The Transporter2 85 is powered by the Bosch Performance Line motor with a 545Wh battery as standard — reliable, well-proven and more than capable for daily cargo use. The 85cm long load surface carries bulky cargo, equipment and large loads with ease, and cable-controlled steering keeps the bike maneuverable in tight spaces. The Bosch Smart System keeps it connected, updatable and compatible with the full Bosch app ecosystem — including eBike Lock, route navigation and motor configuration via the eBike Flow app.
