The Riese & Muller Load 75 is one of the more intuitive cargo bikes we’ve seen and is the only full suspension cargo bike on our best cargo e-bike list. Because of the high quality componentry and unique design the Load 75 comes at a bit of a cost. However if you are looking for a no shortcuts, premium cargo e-bike this is probably the one.
The first indicator that Load 75 didn’t come to play is the fact that it has full suspension, I mean how often do you see that on a cargo bike? The full suspension design not only offers additional comfort and traction, but keeps the cargo from bouncing around when going over a speed bump or curb.
R&M uses a X-Fusion Glyde for the rear shock, and a 70mm Suntour Mobie A32 as the fork. Full suspension frames aren’t the most common in the cargo bike world, but we loved the fact that Riese & Muller were able to utilize it on their Load 75.
The Load 75 Vario uses an Enviolo variable transmission, which provides a massive 536% gear range; highly beneficial for steep hills when carrying cargo. The Vario also uses the Bosch Cargo Line Cruise as its motor. Between the transmission and mid-drive motor the Vario is set up for most cargo tasks.

Riese & Muller focused on ensuring comfort, and control at high speeds on the Load 75.
They’ve successfully done this because of their ‘Control Technology” which optimizes comfort and handling and diminishes vibrations and impacts. They seem to understand that cargo e-bikes aren’t always the funnest bikes to ride, but they’ve done a stellar job making sure that theirs is.
If you have deep pockets, a good appreciation for industrial aesthetics and are looking for an alternative to a car then the Load 75 is probably going to be the e-cargo bike for you. Not only is it high end in the way of performance, it’s also good looking and definitely has that signature Riese & Muller touch.
