The first bikes with the new CX motor arrive

When Bosch presents a new CX motor, manufacturers don't take long to respond. Trek, for example, is showing new bikes with Rail+ and the Powerfly+, both of which benefit from the innovations from Bosch.

Rail+

Trek's new Rail+ is equipped with the latest Performance Line CX motor from Bosch, which has the same 85 Nm torque as the previous Rail models, but with smoother, more refined support and less noise. The rider gets all the benefits of an e-mountain bike with full drive and a more natural ride feel and sound.

In addition to the updated motor, the Rail+ also gets a new Bosch PowerTube battery with Trek's proprietary RIB 2.0 (Removable Integrated Battery). The new battery has a whopping 800Wh and is compatible with the PowerMore Range Extender for really long rides. The optimized RIB 2.0 technology makes it possible to secure and remove the battery with a quarter turn of an Allen key, so the key can be completely forgotten.

Trek has also updated the geometry of the Rail+ with a slacker 64.5° head tube angle and new adjustable geometry functions.

Powerfly+

The hardtail and full suspension bikes in Trek's Powerfly+ series also come with the new Bosch CX motor. The full suspension models of the Powerfly+ have a chassis with 120 millimetres of travel at the rear and 130 millimetres at the front, while the updated layout of the rear suspension allows for a lower standover height. The Powerfly+ hardtail has the same fork with 120 millimeters of travel as its predecessor, but with a new geometry. Both models have mounts for pannier racks, mudguards and a kickstand.
