For the rider who alternates between town journeys and weekend rides to the Fonseranes locks or along the greenways, and wants a comfortable bike that is easy to step through and pleasing to the eye. It suits riders from 160 to 200 cm according to Trek.
District+ 2 Lowstep: easy access, with added comfort. This Alpha Smooth aluminium step-through frame uses the mechanics of the District+ 2: Bosch Active Line Plus motor, CompactTube 400 Wh battery, suspension fork and suspension seatpost. Getting on, getting off and putting a foot down at a red light happen without contortions, which makes a difference every day when you stop often.
| Nexus 7-speed + chain | Nexus 8-speed + chain | Nexus + Gates belt | |
| How it works | Gears enclosed in the rear hub | Same principle, one more gear | Carbon belt instead of a chain |
| Maintenance | Chain needs lubing, sealed hub | Chain needs lubing, sealed hub | No grease or rust, just a tension check |
| Reference bike | District+ 1 and 2 | District+ 3 | District+ 2 Belt and 3 Lowstep Belt |
| What it means | Simplicity, change gear when stationary | Wider range for the hills | Clean trousers, very long life |
In other words: the District+ 2 Lowstep weighs 26.10 kg in size M according to Trek. Compared with the District+ 1 Lowstep, it adds proper front suspension, a suspension seatpost and a 50 Nm motor, for 1.80 kg more.
The wide, supple Bontrager Boulevard saddle works together with the suspension seatpost: at every road joint, the post gives slightly and spares your lower back. At the front, the 60 mm coil fork absorbs the roots lifting the tarmac on the plane-tree-lined avenues. It is this combination that makes rides of an hour or more truly enjoyable.
The 7-speed Nexus hub is enough for the terrain around Béziers: a low gear for pulling away with a load, a high gear for cruising along the riverbanks. The Bosch Active Line Plus motor delivers 50 Nm and cuts its assistance at 25 km/h, the e-bike limit. The Purion 200 display shows your remaining range before you set off again.
| Model | Motor | Battery | Drivetrain | Weight (size) |
| District+ 1 Lowstep | Bosch Active Line 40 Nm | 400 Wh | Nexus 7-speed, chain | 24.30 kg (M) |
| District+ 2 Lowstep | Bosch Active Line Plus 50 Nm | 400 Wh | Nexus 7-speed, chain | 26.10 kg (M) |
| District+ 2 Belt Lowstep | Bosch Active Line Plus 50 Nm | 400 Wh | Nexus 7-speed, belt | 26.10 kg (M) |
| District+ 3 Lowstep | Bosch Active Line Plus 50 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Nexus 8-speed, chain | 26.20 kg (M) |
Our take: compared with the District+ 1 Lowstep (24.30 kg in M), this District+ 2 Lowstep adds 1.80 kg but also suspension and 10 Nm. Its Belt version, at the same weight, swaps the chain for a Gates belt.
