Are there any restrictions on taking bike on RE or RB trains?
Because I saw the door with bicycle symbol on it but it’s almost always full and there are not enough space
My bike is 2 metres long and weighs about 25 kg (it’s an e-bike).

Usually the conductor will tell you to move your bike somewhere else if there are too many, but they might know where there might be some space left on the train
Your bike is ok to go as long as someone who has higher priority doesn‘t need that space. Small children in prams and wheelchairs have higher priority. If they wouldn‘t fit in the train, you ,or better said, your bike would have to get out. In reality i have never seen that happen but heard train condictors tell people with small children exactly that rule.
Keep in mind that *theoretically* ebikes are only allowed up to 250W.
Cargobikes arent allowed in most trains (you’ll have to check in your region). Usually there’s an indicator how many bikes are allowed in a compartment, obviously wheelchairs and push chairs have priority, otherwise if it’s full you shit out of luck.
