Riese & Muller Load5 pinion in peanut

Riese & Muller Load5 Pinion

Space for everything that matters.

The new Load5 pinion brings the Pinion MGU 1.12 to the Load5 60 and Load5 75 platform, adding a premium, highly integrated and low-maintenance drive option to one of Riese & Muller's most capable cargo bikes.

For riders carrying children, cargo or daily work loads, the Load5 pinion is designed to combine stable handling, full-suspension comfort and confident braking with a cleaner, belt-driven set-up that is especially appealing for heavy everyday use.

  • Available on both the Load5 60 and Load5 75 platform lengths
  • Pinion MGU E1.12 with CompactCore 800 battery
  • Optional second FIT CompactCore 800 for up to 1,600 Wh total capacity
  • Available as both pinion and pinion HS

Why The Load5 Pinion Stands Out

  • Pinion integration: the Pinion MGU 1.12 combines motor and gearbox in one unit for a very tidy, premium cargo-bike set-up.
  • Low maintenance: Gates CDX belt drive and enclosed Pinion drivetrain are especially attractive for riders doing high mileage or year-round use.
  • More energy on demand: a second FIT CompactCore 800 can be configured, taking total battery capacity up to 1,600 Wh.
  • Full-suspension cargo comfort: SR Suntour Mobie34 CGO front suspension and X-Fusion Glyde R rear suspension help keep the bike settled under load.
  • Fast option available: the pinion HS brings the same integrated Pinion concept to a speed-pedelec cargo platform aimed at brisk commuting routes.

Built For Frequent Cargo Use

The brochure positions the new Load5 pinion as a particularly strong option for riders who are out and about a lot and want a high-quality drive solution with reduced maintenance overhead. That makes it especially appealing for heavy daily transport, mixed family and business use, and riders who value cleaner drivetrain operation.

The Load5 pinion also keeps the strengths that make the Load platform so versatile: stable handling under load, controlled braking, confident ride quality and the ability to configure the bike around different cargo tasks.

Drive, Controls And Battery

On the standard pinion model, the specification centres on the Pinion MGU E1.12, FIT Remote Basic and FIT Comfort Display, paired with an 800 Wh CompactCore battery. The HS version steps up to the Pinion MGU E1.12 S for riders wanting a faster commuting set-up.

Both versions keep the same core pitch: integrated drive, precise shifting, strong battery capacity and a premium cargo-bike feel that suits heavier transport and regular use.
