Trek Bikes SA is pleased to announce the launch of a completely new edition of their electric mountain bike line-up, Powerfly. With e-bikes gaining phenomenal popularity over recent years, Trek believes that offering a mountain bike with an electric assist system will encourage those who are less keen on cycling, to get more active; to get \u2018out there\u2019 more often for the love of the ride.<\/p>\n

RIB: a Powerfly exclusive<\/h2>\n

The all-new Powerfly e-MTB saw Trek designers addressing some of the biggest pain points of e-bike integrated batteries. Exclusive to Trek\u2019s Powerfly is the new Removable Integrated Battery (RIB) which fully incorporates the Bosch 500Wh PowerTube battery into the downtube. This facilitates easy access to remove or install the battery thanks to a smarter interface, one-piece battery and cover, and built-in handle. The battery is positioned away from the areas of the bike that are often subjected to dirt, mud and water that naturally accompany the best of outrides. No tools are needed for battery removal.<\/p>\n

Major spec upgrades<\/h2>\n

Major spec upgrades throughout the line, include more robust forks, more powerful 4-piston brakes and tougher tyres. All Powerfly models are powered by rugged Bosch Performance CX motors optimised for off-road use. With Trek\u2019s proven mountain bike frame technology, and the industry\u2019s best product protection, riders can hit the trail with complete confidence in the bike and the brand.<\/p>\n

Three Powerfly families<\/h2>\n

With the all-new Powerfly, e-MTB enthusiasts are spoilt for choice. Choose from Hardtail, Full Suspension (130 mm) and Long Travel (150 mm) families. New OCLV Mountain Carbon models in the Long Travel line enhance the bike\u2019s integration and aesthetics while reducing weight and improving ride quality.<\/p>\n

A new Powerfly Sport hardtail model comes fully accessorised with fenders, rack, kickstand and lights for riders who depend on their ride to be ready for any weather, any terrain, any time. Women\u2019s models in both the full suspension and hardtail line-up offer women\u2019s touchpoints for a better fit and a different aesthetic with alternate colour options.<\/p>\n

Ride it to believe it<\/h2>\n

The new Powerfly rides like a mountain bike because it is one. It has the same frame and suspension tech we’ve refined in our decades-long MTB heritage. But it pushes the boundaries, helping you go the distance on the trails of your dreams. And it\u2019s built for the long-haul, thanks to that 500Wh Bosch battery \u2026 the longest-range available from Bosch. Test-ride a Powerfly today.<\/p>\n
