Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.

The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

The Delite.

The right one for every road.

The Delite is capable of overcoming every challenge – whether long trips, daily commutes, bumpy forest trails or steep ascents. Its exceptional workmanship, Riese & Müller Control Technology and the fourth generation of powerful Bosch Performance motor, combined with up to 625 Wh of battery power, offer freedom and absolute flexibility. You set the destinations – the Delite sets the standards.

The demand for bicycles and e-bikes has risen sharply worldwide in recent weeks and months. This has affected our suppliers' delivery times and availability of parts. In order to ensure our ability to deliver, we will equip the following models with the high-quality suspension fork Marzocchi Bomber Z2, E-Bike+ (100 mm travel) instead of the suspension fork Suntour Aion 34 (100 mm travel) until further notice:
(exceptions: GX option, ABS, Fox Float air suspension)

Professional Opinion

RIESE AND MULLER DELITE GT VARIO HS DETAILS


Sporty frame geometry

Faster, higher, fun.

Whether you opt for the standard equipment with 500 Wh or the optional 625 Wh battery: the complete battery integration with optimum operability sets new standards. Thanks to the battery’s sophisticated positioning, it hardly affects the balance: the bike’s sporty riding behaviour takes centre stage, while you can easily remove the battery at any time. The Bosch Performance Line CX motor is also integrated in a particularly aesthetic and inconspicuous manner thanks to its compact size.

Control Technology with ABS

Safe yet sporty while on the move.

Riese & Müller Control Technology is synonymous with safety and dynamism: the perfectly tuned full suspension of the rear swing arm ensures a sporty riding experience and the best traction even at high speeds. And if you need to stop quickly, the Magura disc brakes with optional ABS system pack quite a punch.

Light technology

A bright outlook.

The daytime running light of the ultra-bright Supernova M99 Mini Pro headlamp with main-beam function offers top lighting conditions at night and also increases your visibility during the day. Thanks to the wide angle of the main-beam, riders can enjoy otherwise more difficult-to-navigate and winding terrain, even in the dark. And even when braking, your sight remains on the road despite the suspension fork retracting, while the exceptionally bright Supernova M99 Tail Light with brake light keeps you safe.

Integrated cockpit

Displays, from simple to smart.

We have reinvented the E-Bike’s cockpit: regardless of whether you choose the optional cockpit with Kiox display, the Bosch SmartphoneHub or the Nyon display, all three options are perfectly integrated in the handlebar and feature clean cable routing. The angle-adjustable stem of the cockpit can be adapted for a comfortable or sportier sitting position. But the standard equipment with Intuvia display also ensures a tidy appearance.


Motors, batteries and displays – great performance from a single source.


Options

Kiox Cockpit

The Kiox display is perfectly integrated into the cockpit: the internal cabling creates a tidy, minimalist appearance. The adjustable angle of the stem lets you choose from a sportier or more upright seating position. The Kiox display includes different training modes and is perfect to use with tactile pressure points on the control unit. Heart rate monitors can be linked by Bluetooth. The scratch-resistant Gorilla glass makes the small Kiox exceptionally robust. Map-free navigation (only in conjunction with a smartphone) completes the features of the Kiox.

SmartphoneHub Cockpit

The Bosch SmartphoneHub and free app turns your smartphone into an E-Bike display which combines smart navigation with live weather, fitness data and much more. Your smartphone’s standard functions are perfectly integrated and can be operated from the handlebar. The Bosch SmartphoneHub is just as perfectly integrated into the tidy minimalist cockpit with internal cabling and adjustable stem angle. And if you leave your smartphone at home, the permanently fixed display also shows the key riding data.

Nyon Cockpit

The Nyon display is perfectly integrated into the cockpit: the internal cabling creates a tidy, minimalist appearance. The adjustable angle of the stem lets you choose between a sportier or more upright seating position. The Nyon display ensures that you are fully connected and ideally equipped with navigation for every tour or day-to-day ride. The colour display, with its intuitive touch function, is very simple to use and, thanks to being robust and easy-to-read, is guaranteed to get you to your destination in any weather. The user interface can be customised to your needs.

Air suspension Fox Float

The Fox Float 34 Performance air suspension fork with 100 mm travel (140 mm travel with the GX option) offers optimum riding conditions for discerning cyclists. The GRIP damping system reliably absorbs shocks from stones, sticks or roots lying on the way and effortlessly compensates for unevenness. With 15 finely adjustable rebound damping levels, this excellently manufactured air suspension fork can be tuned to any undertaking – whether uphill, downhill, field and forest tracks or asphalt.

Bosch eBike ABS

With Riese & Müller Control Technology you are sporty, safe and comfortable on the road. In addition, the ABS option ensures optimum control even in the event of sudden braking. It prevents tires from slipping, the rear wheel lifting and the whole bike skidding out to the side. The proven technology from the world of cars and motorcycles is now also available for your E-Bike.

GX option

If you like riding your E-Bike off-road, then simply equip it with a first-class off-road package. The Suntour Aion air suspension fork with 140 mm travel reliably absorbs shocks and effortlessly compensates for any unevenness on the terrain. The solid tire studs on the shoulders of the Schwalbe Rock Razor tires guarantee outstanding grip, especially when cornering. The wide VP 538 flat pedals provide grip for your feet. The sporty Ergon saddle and the Ergon GP 3 bar-end handles with their ergonomic shape for optimum pressure distribution, three different grip zones and excellent vibration damping ensure maximum comfort on long trips. The adjustable X-Fusion Manic seatpost simply makes off-road riding an absolute joy.

Front carrier

Being sporty when out and about – and yet still having everything you need with you. You can secure up to 5 kg of luggage on the front luggage carrier, fixed to the frame and hence co-sprung, perfectly protected from knocks and bumps. Bungee cords secure a sleeping bag, small sports bag or provisions in place in no time at all. And you’ll come to appreciate your front luggage carrier just as quickly.

Front carrier with bag

Keep on the move and still have everything with you. You can secure up to 5 kg of luggage on the front luggage carrier, which is fixed to the frame and hence benefits from the bike’s full suspension, perfectly protecting your cargo from knocks and bumps. The bag offers space for a volume of X litres. Thanks to the zipper and roll closure, your transported goods are perfectly protected from dirt and rain. The bag can be removed quickly and easily and becomes a shoulder bag using the strap supplied. You can safely store smaller items in the two outer pockets equipped with waterproof zippers.

Pannier rack

The minimalist pannier rack is ideal for fixing panniers weighing up to 5 kg each. The rear and brake lights are unobtrusively integrated into it. The “Form follows function” design principle has been exceptionally well executed with the pannier rack.


The perfect gear for every pace.

Baskets and panniers can be fixed to it with a single click. This extraordinarily stable system lets you quickly swap bicycle accessories fitted with an MIK adapter plate. Accessories can be obtained from your dealer.
