Riese & Müller Multicharger4

Riese & Müller Multicharger4, Cargo Kit Edition

The Ultimate Off-Road Grand Tourer

The R&M Cargo Kit is included in the price. Two roll-top cargo panniers and a frame bag, £314 from Riese & Müller if bought separately. We fit it as standard because the Multicharger4 we sell is a touring bike first, not a family bike.

The Riese & Müller Multicharger4 Cargo Kit transforms the versatile midtail cargo platform into an all-terrain grand tourer built for off-road bikepacking expeditions and long-distance travel. Combining the agile handling and sleek frame design of the Charger5 trekking bike with a massive 200 kg total weight capacity, this midtail lets you haul serious gear across dirt tracks, gravel roads, and backcountry routes without losing stability or control.
