Why you'll love it
- The new System Controller shows your currently-selected assist level and remaining battery level. Its neatly integrated into the top tube for maximum protection and a sleek look.
- Bosch's new smart system gives you all the same power and responsiveness with a new discrete Mini Remote that's streamlined with just the controls you need at your fingertips to toggle through assist levels or change to walk mode
- Intelligent eMTB and eMTB Lite modes automatically adjust the assist based on your input to give you just the right amount of power for your ride
- The new frame is extra stout with a 34.9mm seat tube to accommodate more robust dropper posts, and an oversized head tube that works with burly e-MTB-optimized forks for less flex and more precise steering
- Trek's Removable Integrated Battery (RIB) system looks great and is super user-friendly: it fully hides the battery in the frame for protection, makes it easy remove the battery without tools and lets you mount a water bottle cage
