Yes it can, the manual references itI wonder if that TQ smart box could be used to run integrated lights of the main battery for night riding.…anyone knows?

The only thing that worries me, is the range of it… I would like the possibility of at least a range of 75km and 1000hm.That’s why I am considering the new Rise 2023 with the bigger battery of +500W… for the same price also much better equipped, without saying the specs are better or not, but they are more expensive if you compare Exe 9.8 XT vs Rise team, both 10000€ in Belgium. XT drivetrain vs XT DI and rockshox vs FOX factory… I did testdrive on the rise 2022, 50km and 750hm ,90% in eco and 45% battery left…I am 75kg.
You are making some good points here. In terms of range, it certainly matters what you ride most of the time. my rides are usually 20 miles with maybe 1800 feet of climbing. I usually have 40-50% of battery left on my EXe and I ride in trail most of the time. weight around 155 lbs. I prefer the smaller battery and love the lower weight as I would not use the capacity most of the time. if I was riding much longer, steeper rides most of the time, then I would also look at a bike with a larger battery and the new Rise is not much heavier, nor is the new Wild for that matter.The only thing that worries me, is the range of it… I would like the possibility of at least a range of 75km and 1000hm.That’s why I am considering the new Rise 2023 with the bigger battery of +500W… for the same price also much better equipped, without saying the specs are better or not, but they are more expensive if you compare Exe 9.8 XT vs Rise team, both 10000€ in Belgium.

What's the full spec on that?View attachment 104295
Fuel ex-e 9.5. Nearly everything changed (dropper and cranks not). Mullet. 17.6 kg. Used for about 400 km now. Love it!
Are your home trails more cross country oriented? 17.6 kg is low, great job?View attachment 104295

I have that exact bike and I wrapped mine using Gloss. For me the paintwork is a bit metallic and what I considered to be on the gloss side of things. I am very happy with the way it looks. (I am in Australia and purchased my kit via a local company called Frameskin). I also purchased some extra film to go around any exposed bottom bracket areas as I found the topcoat seems very soft and was showing scuffing and scatches very readily. Hope this helps.Hi - I have just ordered a 9.7 in Galactic Grey to Black Fade - am going to cover with ride wrap. Looking for recommendations for gloss or matte wrap? The pictures of the 9.7 colour on the Trek Website look matte - can anyone with a 9.7 in that colour confirm?

Apologies, I haven't taken many pics of my bike... I will clean the bike on the weekend and try and get some good shots outside in decent lighting. But here are a couple of random (indoor) pics I currently have on my phone. The one with the wheels off looks very shiny but that is due to the ceiling downlights on max as it is when I was actually finishing applying the protective film. Outdoors in sunlight the gloss film looks quite balanced and not too glossy (in my opinion). There is one close-up to try and show the speckled finish of the (grey) paintwork. Hope this helps.Any pics?

Why is that? The Rise has more power, you’d think it has less range!The range on the Rise with the 360 wh battery has more range than the EX-e. I really hope TQ can improve their battery technology and make it backwards compatible. I only get about 20-25 miles and 2,200-3,000‘ elevation. I used a combination of all 3 power levels. With the Rise I was able to get 25-30 miles and 3-3,500’ elevation. With the Rise, I only rode trail and boost, I NEVER used eco. I am 175 lbs ready to ride (water, tools, etc.).
Why is that? The Rise has more power, you’d think it has less range!
How do you like it compared to the Rise? I am considering a switch from Rise to EXe
Rise is sandbagging. Mentioned that already somewhere else here in the forum. A german bike magazin measured the battery of the rise. Its close to 400wh not 360wh as labled. On the other hand tq lables it 360wh but its actually 350wh.Why is that? The Rise has more power, you’d think it has less range
that would explain a lot, but it seems to contradict various range tests that other mags have done on the exe vs the rise, where they come out with broadly similar ranges in boost/max mode, for example.Rise is sandbagging.

This tests are not apples to apples. For example the modes are not even equal regarding max watts. So its possible that you get a lower range on a bike where the eco mode is at higher power. This tests are good to get a feeling for the bike or clicksthat would explain a lot, but it seems to contradict various range tests that other mags have done on the exe vs the rise, where they come out with broadly similar ranges in boost/max mode, for example.
