Really good. Due to the gearing, you can't push it that fast, but I find i can cruise it around 35 -38km per hour. 32km/hr limit is just slightly too slow. Obviously not needed for trail riding, but great on the way home. It was driving me a bit loco every time the motor stopped at the 32km/hr...

I too was going to get the whyte, but like you, I thought thr battery system was just plain difficult. My trek rail is my first ebike, and its awesome. I find it pretty much ploughs through anything, and it feels kind of nimble. Im not a very experienced mountain biker when it comes to how bikes...

I had exactly the same problem. Took it back after 2 weeks as it wouldn't drop at all. Now it's just crunchy. Il be asking for another i think

My rail 7 has the yari fork. Thars awesome if you got the lyric! [emoji106]

Hi mate... im a bit heavier at 112kg, so I guess that doesn't help. Longest ride I managed was 800m of climbing in total, and 61kms. That was using a mixture of eco, tour and EMTB modes. There is a ride I wish to do that is around 80km, and about 1200m total climbing. It maybe that the backpack...

Hi all, I am just investigating if there is a system to add a battery for extending range in the trek rail. I did find a post from Trail Watts indicating they were working on something mid 2019, but I have had no response to queries to their site. Apart from putting a spare in a backpack, has...

Watching with interest.

What's his full handle mate?

XL frame so hopefully something would fit! The question for me though, is it worth it in its performance vs price. [emoji2187]

I too have a trek rail, so interested in a shock reccomendation [emoji106]

I am 6ft or 181cm, and am definitely on an XL for the trek rail. My knees were right up by the bars in a large.

Only one i have.

Yes, local to me. I bought an XL. I am 6 ft or 181cm. Ordinarily I ride a large, but I am definitely an XL on this bike.

I just bought the rail 7 in black/red. I had to do a double take at first, as the paint job made it look like carbon. I took it for a spin through a local forest last night, and it was outstanding. I still need to fiddle with suspension a bit, but I have zero doubt about bike choice. It is as...

To close the loop on this one, I bought the rail 7 in black/red. I took it for a spin last night. There is definately no buyers remorse after that! After spending some time adjusting the suspension on the trail, the bike dialed in very nicely. I am very happy with it. Without a doubt I now have...

Never even considered that or knew about it. Ill go to a shop tomorrow and investigate!

Mate I too am about that weight. I see the large scott egenius has a bosch piggyback system. How do you find the bike?

Yes... I like the trek too, but I like the idea of a piggyback battery, and I believe the orbea wild and the haibike are the only ones who do it with bosch. I've read a lot of the same thing on the specialized motor thing too, but who really knows unless you own one.

Thank you mate. Will do! Supply is a problem, and I've found that the shops want a deposit up front, or its sold to someone else... latest shipments seem to be arrving early Jan, snd because demand is exceeding supply the sales guys aren't working too hard

Thats a great looking bike! Do you know if you can piggy back a battery on it?
