We're loving this brand new bike from Riese & Müller!
Ever since we saw this bike while we were in Frankfurt for EuroBike this past fall, we haven’t been able to stop talking about it! We’re not alone, either – the Vario iteration won the Gold Award for its exceptional design and functionality! The Riese & Müller Carrie is the newest compact electric cargo bike in the Riese & Müller lineup, and we can’t wait for you to meet it.
The Carrie is a bakfiet-style front-loading electric cargo bike, much like the Load4 75, but much smaller. The design feature that really pushes it over into excellence, however, is the Flexbox on the front. This is a locking box that can accommodate seating for up to two small riders, or your cargo if you’re using this cargo bike exclusively for hauling!
Here are some of the basics on what the differences are between the three different default build kits!

With any bike that’s built to WORK HARD for you, you’ll also want to know HOW hard it can work before it gets dangerous. Here are the fast facts about the maximum gross vehicle weight!

Want more info on the Carrie? We’ve put up not one but TWO new videos over on our YouTube channel. The first one is an in-depth look at everything we think is amazing about the Carrie, and the second one pits it head-to-head with the most popular electric cargo bike we sell, the Tern GSD. Go check them out and let us know what you think! And as always, if you’d like to come by and take a test ride, there’s no better way to get a feel for the bike. We’re open Monday - Saturdays!
