Riese & Muller Load5 60 / 75 tires
The Riese & Muller Load5 60 / 75 runs 60-406 in ETRTO sizing, the width in millimetres followed by the rim bead seat diameter. It is staggered: a 60 section at the front and a 55 at the back, so the two can never be swapped across axles and the rear goes first. The Trek Fetch+ takes the same size.
Every fitment
| Generation | Trim | Wheel | Tire size | Inch size |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Current | Load5 60 / Load5 75 touring and HS (Schwalbe Pick-Up front, Super Moto-X rear) | 20in front / 26in rear | 60-406 front, 55-559 rear | 20x2.35 |
Your own placard is the authority. You will find it on the printed on the tire sidewall, next to the pressure range. Where it disagrees with this page, it wins. Match or exceed the size, load index, speed rating and construction class it gives, and use its pressure figure rather than anything printed on the tire.
What changes on this bike
The Load5 is staggered by wheel size: a 20in Schwalbe Pick-Up 60-406 under the box and a 26in Super Moto-X 55-559 at the back, with Smart Sam Cargo versions of both as an option.
R&M rates both the Load5 60 and 75 at 200 kg gross, and the HS speed versions use the same pair, so the Pick-Up and Super Moto-X carry the ECE-R75 certification an S-pedelec needs.
This model replaced the Load4 in R&M's range; Load4 owners should not assume the same sizes, as R&M has retired the Load4 spec pages.

Common questions
- What size tires does the Riese & Muller Load5 60 / 75 take?
- It runs 60-406. The exact fitment for your bike is on Printed on the tire sidewall, next to the pressure range.
- Can I fit a cheaper tire to a Riese & Muller Load5 60 / 75?
- Only at 60-406 or better. That is the figure to hold: a tire below the load index, the speed rating or the construction class is not a cheaper one, it is the wrong one.
