Latest News from Riese & Müller

[dblhelix]

Does anyone know whether the 2020 Riese & Müller bikes are in production, and when they will start shipping to the US market?

A dealer like @Chris Nolte can probably give you an accurate timeline.

Aside: is it bc Mr Coffee is taken, or is decaf your preference?

They are starting to produce and ship although most speed bikes are starting towards the end of November or beginning of December.

The Mr. Coffee name made me smile. I have to drink decaf now, and decided to use the Mr. Decaf name.

Thank you, Chris. It seems like some of the models at Eurobike may have been pre-production prototypes. Very impressive looking bikes.

As long as I can interact with it via the dedicated buttons, this would be fine for me

I just got an update yesterday that it’s on their roadmap, but it’s not compatible at the moment.

Yes, they were, but they were pretty well setup. I’m very excited about what they are doing!

You want a good deal on a pre order, talk to Max at San Diego Fly Rides. I got a great deal with a trade in.

Man, that's a long wait!

That can’t be right?

I ordered my Homage on 2018-08-31 (the day it was listed on R&M's website) and received it on 2019-01-08. Build date was the final week of November 2018.

As it was air freighted, distance from Germany was not an issue but arriving in Brisbane the day before Christmas was.

It has proven to be a really good bike despite the long wait and a serious let-down relating to the Kiox display.

I assume production for 2019 models commenced late 2018?

In @Ddewsbury ‘s case, sea freight, even without additional delays, means a delivery date ca beginning of August 2020! Summer’s almost over, Riese & Müller! If not a software error, there must be some problem. Perhaps the new motors are actually not available for a while?

 

[Mr. Decaf]

I'm getting air freight. But come on! I have reached out to r&m for more details.

There must be a big demand.

I'm a Rohloff owner and am still waiting for a reply to an email from just under 4 weeks ago. Maybe Rohloff is super busy?

It was a problem in the computer.

I'm going to love the matte paint. No more oily handprints!
