Trek District+ 1 Coaster Lowstep Supernova: a classic-spirited market bike

Finished in a warm brown shade that Trek calls Supernova, this Trek District+ 1 Coaster Lowstep is offered here in size L, for riders from 175 to 186 cm. Its 7-speed Shimano Nexus hub integrates the rear brake, applied by pedalling backwards, while a hydraulic disc brakes the front.

Who is it for?

For the tall rider who wants a retro-looking neighbourhood bike that can carry a basket at the front and a crate at the back, and who grew up with coaster brakes. It will also appeal to retirees getting back on the bike for shopping and visits around the Allées Paul Riquet.

The LVR workshop view

The Coaster: old-school braking for an electric bike. Coaster refers to the back-pedal brake: you pedal backwards and the Nexus hub brakes the wheel. This District+ 1 Lowstep therefore has just one lever on the handlebar, for the front hydraulic disc. Trek adds a second, MIK-compatible rack at the front, on the same Alpha Smooth aluminium step-through frame.

	Coaster brake	Hydraulic discs	The Coaster combination
How it works	You pedal backwards to brake	One lever per wheel on the handlebar	Disc at the front, coaster brake at the rear
Maintenance	Built into the hub, almost none	Periodic pads and bleeds	Front pads only
Reference bike	Traditional city bikes	District+ 1 Lowstep	District+ 1 Coaster Lowstep
What it means	Second nature if you grew up with it	Fine modulation on both wheels	A single lever, hands freer

In other words: this District+ 1 Coaster Lowstep weighs 25.00 kg in size M according to Trek, with two racks and a foot-operated rear brake. It is aimed first and foremost at those used to coaster brakes.

The Bosch Active Line motor delivers 40 Nm of torque: gentle, progressive assistance that starts without a jolt when the light turns green. On a coaster-brake bike, that smoothness matters, as you stay in control of your speed with your legs. European regulations set the end of the assistance at 25 km/h; beyond that, you pedal on your own, which rarely happens in town.

The Lowstep frame and the rigid aluminium fork make for a bike that is low and stable when stopped, and easy to load. The CompactTube battery stays housed in the down tube, protected from the weather. On the safety side, Trek rates the front rack at 10 kg maximum: beyond that, it is better to load the rear to keep the steering light.

Which District+ should you choose?

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+ 1 Coaster Lowstep	Bosch Active Line 40 Nm	400 Wh	Nexus 7-speed, coaster brake	25.00 kg (M)
District+ 2 Belt Lowstep	Bosch Active Line Plus 50 Nm	400 Wh	Nexus 7-speed, belt	26.10 kg (M)
District+ 4 Coaster Lowstep	Bosch Performance Line 75 Nm	545 or 800 Wh	Nexus 5-speed, coaster brake	26.00 kg (M)

Our take: this brown colour only comes in L, whereas the midnight blue also offers an S. Compared with the District+ 2 Belt Lowstep (26.10 kg in M), the Coaster gives up suspension and the belt drive but keeps two racks and the foot brake.
