Electric city bike Trek District+ 2 black: Bosch Active Line Plus 400 Wh, suspension fork, 26.60 kg in L

Trek District+ 2 Trek Black: smooth everyday commuting

The Trek District+ 2 moves up a notch from the District+ 1: 50 Nm Bosch Active Line Plus motor, Bosch Purion 200 display, 60 mm SR Suntour NVX30 fork and suspension seatpost. The 400 Wh CompactTube battery and the 7-speed Shimano Nexus hub remain, for 26.60 kg in size L according to Trek. This Trek Black colour is a deep, timeless black.

Technical specifications

Who is it for?

For the rider who rides every day in town and on suburban roads, and no longer wants to feel every pothole through their wrists. Offered in M and L, it covers riders from 160 to 200 cm and suits commutes of a few kilometres with moderate climbing.

The LVR workshop view

The District+ 2: suspension comfort on a straight-top-tube frame. Compared with the District+ 1, this model moves to the 50 Nm Bosch Active Line Plus motor and adds two forms of suspension: a 60 mm SR Suntour NVX30 fork and a suspension seatpost. The Alpha Smooth aluminium frame stays the same, with the CompactTube battery housed in the down tube.

In other words: the District+ 2 costs 1.50 kg more than the District+ 1 (26.60 kg versus 25.10 kg in L) but gains 10 Nm of torque, a suspension fork, a suspension seatpost and the Purion 200 display. It is a trade-off you can feel on cobbles and ramps.

The NVX30 fork uses a coil spring: no air pressure to monitor, and the preload is adjusted by hand to suit your weight. Its 60 mm of travel is enough to absorb speed bumps, kerbs and the cobbles of the old town. The suspension seatpost completes the setup at the rear, where your back takes the most.

The Active Line Plus motor delivers 10 Nm more than the Active Line on the District+ 1: you feel it mostly when pulling away and on ramps, such as the climb up to Saint-Nazaire cathedral. The assistance stops at 25 km/h, in line with the law. The Purion 200 display shows speed, mode and remaining range, and updates with the Bosch system.

Which District+ should you choose?

Our take: the District+ 2 weighs 1.50 kg more than the District+ 1 (26.60 kg versus 25.10 kg in L) for fork and seatpost suspension and 50 Nm. The District+ 4, at 26.20 kg in L, moves to the 75 Nm Performance Line motor and a belt drive.
