Leading global bicycle manufacturer Trek has revealed its new range of electric bicycles, diving into the e-bike market with a number of models.
The new Powerfly range of electric-assisted bikes give those who need a little more oomph some assistance for the rugged terrain out there, using a 500Wh Removable Integrated Battery (RIB) system to derive its power.
The battery is housed in the downtube of the frame, so there’s no obstruction and extra bulk on the body of the bike.
The frames themselves have also featured upgrades from the standard Trek bikes, with more robust forks and 4-piston brakes being the most eye-catching of the improvements, along with tougher tyres. The whole range also uses Bosch Performances CX motors specifically designed for more rugged, off-road use.
The line, which features bikes ranged from R65,000-R80,000, comes in a few models depending on how spec’d out an individual wants their bike to be, and you can find the full range with more insightful breakdowns here at their site.
