Andersen Royal Shopper Plus — Lasse Bag

When the Royal isn't wide enough. The Royal Shopper Plus takes the Royal's proven aluminium chassis and widens the track to 58 cm — Andersen's widest — paired here with the Lasse. 50 kg load capacity, two ball-bearing wheel options, and the same Type 1 Adaptor Bike n Easy compatibility. The Plus is what you choose when the regular Royal feels tippy under awkward loads.

Compatibility

Choose the Royal Plus over the standard Royal when load stability matters more than compactness. The wider 58 cm track is noticeably steadier on cambered pavements and rougher ground. It's a fraction wider to manoeuvre through tight spaces — narrow supermarket aisles or revolving doors may need a bit more thought. Bike towing via the Type 1 Adaptor.

Attaching to a bicycle

This Shopper is compatible with Andersen's Bike n Easy attachment system, which lets you switch between pulling on foot and towing behind a bicycle in a few seconds.

Two components are needed: an adaptor on the Shopper (this frame takes the Type 1 Adaptor) and a coupling unit on the bicycle. The bike-side coupling depends on your bicycle's geometry:

Pull Easy — bikes with a rear luggage carrier
Easy Snap — alternative for rear-carrier bikes
Big Easy — bikes without a rear rack (mounts to seat strut)

The full breakdown with fitting guides and videos is on the Andersen Bike n Easy attachment guide.

Fitting & installation

The Andersen frame arrives fully assembled. The bag clicks onto the frame using the HängFix system (on Royal, Royal Plus, and Unus frames) or attaches via integrated straps (on Scala, Komfort, and Tura). Both are tool-free.

For bicycle attachment, see Compatibility above and the Andersen Bike n Easy guide for the full fitting walk-through, including PDFs and video tutorials per coupling. The Royal Shopper Plus user manual is available to download on this page.

FAQs

How does the Lasse compare to the Hydro 3.0 on the same frames?

Similar capacity (59L vs 62L) on the same frames. The Hydro 3.0 adds waterproof construction, an 8L thermal compartment, and backpack mode for almost twice the bag weight (1.5 kg vs 1.0 kg). The Lasse keeps it simple and saves 0.5 kg of empty trolley weight. Choose the Hydro if you need weather or thermal performance; choose the Lasse if you don't.

Why is the Lasse only on the larger frames?

The 40 cm width and 63 cm height are sized for the Royal Plus's 58 cm and the Tura's 55 cm track widths. On a Royal (50 cm) or Scala (45 cm) the bag would overhang the chassis. Andersen's frame-specific bag sizing prevents mismatches.

When should I choose the Royal Plus over the standard Royal?

Choose Plus if you regularly carry loads that shift (bottles, awkward boxes, pet supplies) or if you've found the standard Royal tippy on cambered pavements. Stick with the standard Royal if you want the broader wheel choice (six options versus two) or need to fit through narrower spaces.

Why does the Royal Plus only have two wheel options?

The Plus is positioned as the heavy-duty stability variant, so Andersen restricts it to the two most popular ball-bearing 25 cm wheels — whisper for noise-sensitive routes, pneumatic for rough ground. If you need the Double-Spoke, Metal-Spoke or 29 cm options, go with the standard Royal.

Hitch A Bike Expert Note

The Lasse fills a specific gap on the Royal Plus and Tura — high capacity (59 litres beats most mid-range bags by 10+ litres) without the weight cost of the Hydro 3.0's feature stack. If you load heavy but shop in fair weather, this is the right balance. The Red and Blue colour options are bright enough to be visible roadside, which combined with the reflective trim makes it a decent commuting choice for users who tow.
