Groceries, work gear, dog supplies, market runs, weekend errands, the slightly chaotic Tuesday list. This one is built around a large front box with the Dog Kit and tarpaulin, so it is especially well suited to riders who want a stable cargo bike for everyday carrying rather than a dedicated child-passenger setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis configuration comes in true white with the Bosch Performance Line smart system motor, upgraded 725 Wh Bosch PowerPack battery, Enviolo continuously variable hub gear, Gates CDX belt drive, carrier, additional chain lock with Vaude bag, box, Dog Kit and tarpaulin. In plain terms, it is built to make useful trips by bike feel normal, even when Wellington adds hills, wind and a suspiciously large grocery shop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 1px solid #d8d8d8; border-radius: 12px; padding: 18px 20px; background: #f7f7f5; margin: 24px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBike type\u003c\/strong\u003e Electric front-loading cargo bike\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest use\u003c\/strong\u003e Dog transport, groceries, errands, business loads and everyday city riding\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMotor\u003c\/strong\u003e Bosch Performance Line smart system\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBattery\u003c\/strong\u003e Bosch PowerPack 725 Wh\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrivetrain\u003c\/strong\u003e Enviolo 380 continuously variable hub gear with Gates CDX belt drive\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCargo setup\u003c\/strong\u003e Box, Dog Kit (family set-up available upon request) and tarpaulin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisplay\u003c\/strong\u003e Bosch Intuvia 100\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrakes\u003c\/strong\u003e Tektro Auriga Comp HD-500 hydraulic disc brakes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 24px 0 10px 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eWhy we like it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Transporter2 65 sits in a very useful place. It gives you proper front-loader carrying space, but keeps the setup focused and practical. The cargo area is right where you can see it, which is handy when you are carrying a dog, fragile gear, shopping bags or the kind of load that would otherwise have you playing handlebar-bag Jenga.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bosch Performance Line motor gives solid everyday support for hills, starts and loaded riding. The 725 Wh battery adds a good amount of riding margin for longer commutes, higher assist use, windy days and extra cargo weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Enviolo hub gear and Gates belt drive are a good match for this kind of bike. You get smooth, simple gear changes without clicking through fixed steps, and the belt drive reduces drivetrain wear compared with a chain. For a cargo bike that may be used most days, that makes ownership a bit calmer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 24px 0 10px 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eBest for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a strong option for riders who want to replace more car trips with a bike that can carry useful loads. It suits dog owners, households doing local errands, small business use, grocery runs, commuting with gear, and anyone who likes the idea of a front-loader but does not need a full family passenger build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also makes sense for Wellington riding. The motor helps with loaded starts and hills, the front box keeps cargo settled, and the bike is built for daily transport rather than occasional novelty rides around the block.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 24px 0 10px 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eWhat makes this build different\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis configuration is set up around cargo and dog transport rather than child carrying. The box gives you a proper contained cargo space, the Dog Kit makes the front area more dog-friendly, and the tarpaulin helps cover the load when the weather turns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe upgraded 725 Wh battery is also a useful choice. On a cargo bike, battery size is not just about distance. It gives more margin for hills, headwinds, higher assist levels and carrying heavier loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 24px 0 10px 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Transporter2 65 is a long front-loading cargo bike, so storage and parking matter. It is brilliant when it has a sensible place to live, but it is not the bike you want to haul up tight stairs or wedge into a narrow hallway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis build includes the Dog Kit and tarpaulin. If you are mainly carrying children, choose a child-focused Transporter setup instead, such as the double child seat and child cover configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe additional ABUS chain lock is a useful inclusion for a bike at this value. For longer stops or overnight parking, we would still recommend thinking carefully about location, visibility, insurance and whether a second high-security lock makes sense.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 24px 0 10px 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eChoose this if...\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose this if you want a stable electric front-loader for dogs, groceries, work gear and everyday Wellington transport. It is especially good if you want a cargo bike that feels useful most days, not just when the stars align and the weather behaves itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose a child-passenger Transporter setup if school runs are the main job. Choose a longtail cargo bike if you want a narrower bike that feels more like a regular bicycle and you are mostly carrying kids or rear-mounted gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 24px 0 10px 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eOur take\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a very sensible Transporter2 65 build for someone who wants a cargo bike for practical, everyday carrying. The box, Dog Kit, tarpaulin, belt drive, Enviolo hub and larger battery all point in the same direction: easy day-to-day ownership, useful cargo space and enough support for real Wellington riding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is not the smallest cargo bike and it is not the child-carrying version. That is the point. This one is for riders who want a proper front-loader for dogs, gear and daily life, with the kind of setup that turns “I’ll just take the car” into “nah, the bike can do that.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Riese \u0026 Müller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48365712998592,"sku":"F00945","price":11963.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0791\/1071\/files\/26_F01243_400103060812_Transporter2_65_Var_White_725Wh_Box_Persenning_0631.png?v=1780628027","url":"https:\/\/www.bicyclejunction.co.nz\/products\/riese-muller-transporter2-65-vario-white","provider":"Bicycle Junction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
