For the rider who likes to head out for the day on the Passa Païs greenway, ride to the sea at Valras or Sérignan, or follow the vineyards along quiet lanes. The step-through frame makes the many stops easier, and the large battery saves you counting every kilometre.
The Lowstep frame, for getting on without lifting your leg. Lowstep is Trek's name for its step-through frame: the top tube dips very low, so you step through the bike from the front while stationary, even when loaded or in town clothes. On this District+ 4 Lowstep, the frame gets the same trouble-free mechanics as the straight-top-tube model: five-speed Nexus internal gear hub, Gates CDX belt drive and Shimano MT200 hydraulic brakes.
| Nexus 5 + chain | Nexus 5 + Gates CDX belt | Enviolo + Gates CDX belt | |
| How it works | 5 gears in the hub, conventional chain | 5 gears in the hub, toothed belt | Continuously variable, no steps |
| Maintenance | Chain needs cleaning and lubing | No grease or regular cleaning | No grease, sealed hub |
| Reference bike | District+ 4 Guard / Coaster Lowstep | District+ 4, 4 Lowstep, Coaster Belt | District+ 5 and 5 Lowstep |
| What it means | Simple, common parts | Clean and quiet every day | The finest gear progression |
In other words: this is the lightest District+ in our selection, at 25.60 kg in M, with the easy access of a step-through frame and a belt drive you can forget about. A bike the whole household can use.
Around Béziers, the wind matters as much as the terrain: riding into the sea breeze or the tramontane, the assistance works harder and drains the battery faster. With 800 Wh, you keep some in reserve for the way home, even into a headwind. Bosch offers a range calculator to estimate your routes; we help you use it.
The 2.40-inch Bontrager E6 Hard-Case Lite tyres combine air volume with puncture protection, useful on greenways strewn with fine gravel. Their reflective sidewalls make you visible from the side at dusk. The assistance stops beyond 25 km/h, and the belt keeps turning without noise or grease.
| Model | Motor | Battery | Drivetrain | Weight (size) |
| District+ 3 Lowstep | Bosch Active Line Plus, 50 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Shimano Nexus 8-speed, chain | 26.20 kg (M) |
| District+ 4 Lowstep | Bosch Performance Line, 75 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Nexus 5-speed, Gates CDX belt | 25.60 kg (M) |
| District+ 4 Coaster Belt Lowstep | Bosch Performance Line, 75 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Nexus 5 with coaster brake, belt | 26.00 kg (M) |
| District+ 5 Lowstep | Bosch Performance Line, 75 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Enviolo Trekking, Gates CDX belt | 26.70 kg (M) |
Our take: compared with the Pennyflake 545 Wh, this version brings 255 Wh more for the same published Trek weight (25.60 kg in M): the right choice if you head out for the day. The District+ 4 Coaster Belt Lowstep, at 26.00 kg, adds a coaster brake.

LVR sizing advice This Pennyflake 800 Wh comes in M (165 to 175 cm, inseam 77 to 83 cm) and L (175 to 186 cm, inseam 82 to 88 cm). For long rides, a slightly higher handlebar position eases the strain on your back: the adjustable stem allows this on both sizes.
