Powerfly eMTB expands your boundaries. It combines Trek's proven design with the reliable propulsion of Bosch pedal assist electric bike technology, turning every mountain into a hill and every ride into pure enjoyment.
End of the trail? Not for you! Especially if you're searching for an e-bike with the extra power to let you go even farther. Powerfly takes you everywhere and a little bit beyond.
Key features
Powerful central-mount Bosch motor, for speeds up to 20 mph
Alpha Platinum Aluminum frame with additional Motor Armor protection
Ready for extras like lights, fenders, racks, kickstand
29 wheels roll faster, ride better, clear more obstacles"
Buttery smooth stability
A serious all-rounder for any e-MTB adventure. Clever details, a high quality spec, and superb handling package packed into a tidy-looking aluminum frame rounded off with a very fair price.
9 out of 10. Best in Test. What a bike!
Trek's latest e-bike isn't simply about climbing higher, riding further, or exploring more; it's also about having a total blast in the process. Genuinely lets you climb faster than an XC bike and still bomb down every descent.
Really rad experiences to be had
Powerfly enables riders to go farther, faster. I was able to explore new trails that I normally would've avoided because they were too steep or had unreasonably long climbs.
A bucketload of fun
The combination of a well thought out chassis and chubby rubber mean it’s capable of some quite amazing feats. It's absolutely ridiculous what the bike will haul you up. It's a tool to get out and explore new terrain.

WHY I'M LOOKING AT ELECTRIC BICYCLE'S
I enjoy biking on (( green-ways also known as rails to trails )) these are trails made over abandoned railroad lines by the state . Some are pavement some are limestone or gravel and some are even grass or dirt . But after riding for hours and still miles from the car I sometimes would really love to have some help in reaching my car. That's why I have started looking at these Electric Bicycle's . I will be looking at many different brands in my next posts .
Some of these E-Bikes I am not very impressed with but I am just posting them so you can see all the different ones available.
SOME OF THESE BIKES ARE REALLY COOL
