# Fully Integrated E-Bikes The Riese & Müller 'New Charger' and 'Supercharger' Offer Expansive Range By Joey Haar | Published 2018-03-07 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-charger References: [r-m.de](https://www.r-m.de/en-us/e-bike/new-charger/) & [r-m.de](https://www.r-m.de/en-us/e-bike/supercharger/) 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. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 46% | Activity: 67% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Fully Integrated E-bikes:** E-bike manufacturers can explore fully-integrated batteries to provide the same power and range but without the bulky appearance. - **Dualbattery Technology:** Further development in dual-battery technology can pave the way for more reliable long-distance e-bikes. - **Customizable E-bikes:** Manufacturers can focus on selling e-bikes that are specifically tailored to the needs and preferences of customers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Electric Bike Industry:** Manufacturers can focus on creating more efficient, easier to use, and cost-effective e-bikes. - **Bike Sharing Industry:** Bike-sharing companies can consider offering e-bikes to meet the demands of customers who require an easy, convenient, and efficient mode of transportation. - **Electric Car Industry:** Electric car manufacturers can consider integrating e-bikes that match the style and technical specifications of their cars in their product offerings. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Hybrid Touring Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/r-c1000.md) - [Luxury Rugged E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/x735.md) - [Efficient Long-Range E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fuell.md) - [Versatile Fat Tire E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fat-tire-ebike.md) - [German Long-Distance Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bergblitz-s9e.md) - [Modularity-Focused E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/numinis-r2700i-eq.md) - [German Urban Commuter Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/et-135-evo.md) - [Rugged Full-Suspension E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fullsuspension-ebike.md) - [Mid-Range Scrambler Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hyperscrambler-2.md)
