Riese & Muller Tinker Touring HS 500Wh 2018 Floor Model

Motor: The Riese & Müller HS models utilize the Bosch 350 Watt Generation 2 Performance Speed motor delivering up to 60Nm of torque, rated as the best in the industry.  The Performance Speed motor will provide assistance up to 28 mph. The new Bosch Drive Units are fitted with sensors for power, pedal rate and speed with a sampling rate of 1,000 readings per second using a modern 32-Bit processor, the motor seamlessly adjusts to your abilities. In addition, Bosch also developed an automatic gear changer for the new systems: when changing gears the torque is reduced, so that damage to the gears and chain is noticeably reduced. The new Bosch Generation 2 motor systems are extremely responsive, giving a natural and smooth ride.

Battery: Bosch PowerPack 500 Performance, 36 V, 13,4 Ah/500Wh – The most powerful PowerPack available from Bosch. Ultra-modern Bosch lithium ion batteries with 500 Wh energy reserve provide the power for our E-Bikes. The more Watt hours the battery has, the wider its range. This also depends on numerous other factors, such as the pedal assistance level set, the pace, the outside temperature or the inclination of the route. The range computer on the display provides more detailed information. When it’s stop-and-go in the city, the range is shorter than with a constant journey over a longer distance – comparable with the fuel consumption of a car. If you find while you’re on a ride that your battery’s residual power is not going to be enough to complete your journey, you can reduce the degree of assistance and therefore still reach your destination comfortably.

The lifespan is 800 – 1,000 charging cycles. Thanks to the short charging times, the battery can be significantly topped up during a lunch break, for example. A complete charge takes just 4.5 hours.

Flexible Stem: The angle and height-adjustable stem and adjustable seatpost mean that the Tinker can adjust to rider heights from 1.50 to 1.95 m and adapt to every rider’s comfort preferences. This means that it can be used by multiple users with different dimensions. The Tinker serves them all with panache.

Compact Frame: Not a folding bike. Not a mountain bike either. But perfect for busy cities and unspoiled nature. Once the stem is folded and the seatpost pushed in or pulled out, the Tinker can fit into most estate cars, SUVs or mini-vans for transportation. Its frame is so compact that it can effortlessly be taken on public transport.

Display: The variable mode Bosch Intuvia LCD display has two main functions; to allow the rider to control drive parameters, and to display system information, including distance, time and speed. The control pad allows you to access all the computer and drive functions remotely, leaving your hands on the bar to maintain safety and security. To change motor settings while riding, simply push the large, glove friendly keys on the handlebar control pad. This ensures safety and stability, while still allowing you to control the motor for optimal performance.
