Riese & Müller, the premium e-bike manufacturer out of Germany, has arrived at a watershed moment with its two newest bicycles, the 'New Charger' and the 'Supercharger'. The e-bikes have fully integrated batteries, meaning that they provide the same power and range as earlier models, but without the bulky appearance that plagues many other battery-powered bikes.
The New Charger and Supercharger incorporate the Bosch PowerTube battery into the frame's downtube. Both models can also be fitted with an optional DualBattery, which gives them a total of 1,000 Wh and up to 100 miles of range on a single charge. The e-bikes are thus well-suited to day trips or long-distance commutes.
Currently on the market, the New Charger is on offer in five different configurations, while the Supercharger is available in seven configurations.
