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.

We estimate this will be ready for despatch to you or collection via Click & Collect on Undetermined

2020 Riese and Muller Tinker Vario Electric Bike Orange Metallic

Season:2020

Brand:Riese and Muller

Code:RM20TinVarOraMet

The Tinker.

An E-Bike of stature.

The city is packed with challenges: commuter hold-ups on the streets, full buses and trains, sometimes heavy luggage and all this even before the sun comes up. But don’t panic. The solution has a name: Tinker. With this compact E-Bike featuring 20” wheels, you can effortlessly glide past all of this with a broad smile.

Its frame is so cleverly designed that you can quickly carry it up a few steps or store it in the boot of your car. Even in a full bike store, there is always space for the Tinker. Just as straightforward as the Tinker is in everyday life, it is with regard to the rider: tall, small, man or woman, the bike can be perfectly adjusted for everyone in a few easy steps. And with the Tinker you don't have to forego speed either: the HS version offers assistance up to 45 km/h. The daily commute has never been so fast.

Professional Opinion

RIESE & MULLER TINKER VARIO DETAILS


Flexible stem

Fits everyone. Without compromises.

The angle- and height-adjustable stem and easily 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. In everyday life, the clever all-rounder becomes the perfect family E-Bike: you ride in comfort, your children will enjoy it and you can quickly lend it to your best friends or your dearest flat mate.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Compact frame

Saves energy and transport tickets.

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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Abus Shield frame lock

Steals success from thieves.

Park your bike wherever you want. Only you can take it away. The frame lock clicks shut simultaneously with the battery lock, so you only need one key for your E-Bike.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the big city, the little ones are the winners.

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

Enjoy the cycling experience of Riese & Müller E-Bikes live on a test ride.


Accessories

Carrier with racktime system

Baskets and panniers can be secured to the carrier in no time, thanks to the “Snapit” system from racktime. With just a click, your load can be changed quicker than a pit stop. Accessories can be obtained from your dealer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hydraulic disc brakes

The hydraulic disc brakes from Tektro deliver maximum performance, no matter what the weather. The large brake discs allow the braking effect to be distributed most effectively. They don’t produce rim wear and impress with their consistent braking performance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Headlamp with permanent lighting

At dusk, in the woods or late at night: Busch & Müller’s LED headlamps always provide the best road illumination whenever you go for a ride. They are supplied with power by the battery. On the HS models, the brake light ensures that you are even safer on busy roads.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


RIESE AND MULLER UPGRADES & OPTIONS

SUSPENSION SEATPOST

Cane Creek Thudbuster ST

Cobbles can be as difficult to negotiate as any route out in the wild. The Cane Creek Thudbuster ST parallelogram-shaped spring seatpost offers a degree of comfort that makes any dirt track feel like a freshly paved road. Depending on the rider’s weight and comfort preferences, there are three elastomers of differing hardness to choose from.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ACCESSORIES

Cargo platform

The best solution is the Cargo carrier if you want to take more with you. With a volume of 18 L and internal dimensions of 42.5 cm x 30.5 cm x 12.5 cm (WxLxH), the box offers plenty of storage space. There's even space for a crate of water.
