Description
Sustainable design where street style meets minimalism. The Riese & Müller Culture Vario is a lightweight urban eBike with a distinctive minimalist design and a frame made using almost 50% recycled aluminium. Designed around comfort, simplicity and natural handling, the Vario model combines smooth Enviolo continuous gearing with a quiet, low-maintenance Gates belt drive for an exceptionally easy urban riding experience.
Lightweight Bosch Performance Line SX with Smart System. The compact Bosch Performance Line SX motor is seamlessly integrated into the Culture's streamlined frame, delivering up to 60Nm of torque while maintaining a light, natural ride feel. A slim Bosch CompactTube 400Wh battery is integrated into the downtube, with the optional Bosch PowerMore 250Wh Range Extender providing additional capacity when you want to ride further. The Bosch Smart System also adds connected functionality through the Bosch Flow app.
Smooth Enviolo gearing with Gates belt drive. The Culture Vario uses an Enviolo Trekking internal gear hub with Twist Display Pure control, allowing you to continuously adjust the gearing without conventional fixed gear steps. Paired with a clean, quiet Gates CDC carbon belt drive, it creates a simple and low-maintenance drivetrain ideally suited to commuting and everyday urban riding.
Premium comfort with a minimalist approach. Fast-rolling 28-inch wheels and wide Schwalbe Big Ben tyres provide a comfortable, confident ride around the city, while Tektro TRP hydraulic disc brakes deliver dependable stopping performance. The swept-back handlebar creates a relaxed riding position, and integrated lighting and Curana mudguards provide everyday practicality without detracting from the Culture's clean aesthetic.
Customise it for your riding. The Culture's minimalist specification can be expanded to suit how you ride. Choose the optional Suspension Kit for a Suntour NCX suspension fork and suspension seatpost, or add a Riese & Müller MIK rear carrier, frame lock and Bosch PowerMore Range Extender. This makes the Culture Vario equally at home as a streamlined city bike or a more comprehensively equipped everyday commuter.
