For the active retiree or the couple who ride several times a week along the banks of the Canal du Midi, the greenways and the quiet lanes around Béziers, and want a comfortable bike capable of long days out. It also suits the longest commutes.
Comfort first, on the District+ 5 Lowstep. This Alpha Smooth aluminium step-through frame brings together everything that makes a journey pleasant: a Selle Royal ON saddle in its relaxed version, designed for an upright position, an Ergotec suspension seatpost, an adjustable SR Suntour Mobie 34 fork and 62 mm-wide Schwalbe Super Moto-X tyres. Mechanically, the continuously variable Enviolo hub and the Gates CDX belt do away with both gear steps and lubing.

| 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: the District+ 5 Lowstep is the most comfortable and best-equipped District+, with the easy access of a step-through frame, for 26.70 kg in size M.
On a day ride, the combination of the 800 Wh battery and the Enviolo drivetrain really comes into its own: you fine-tune the ratio to your rhythm, the motor works in good conditions and the energy reserve keeps up. We don't put a figure on the range, as it depends too much on the wind and the load carried.
The rear rack takes 25 kg according to Trek: panniers, a picnic and waterproofs all fit. The SKS mudguards and reflective tyres complete the touring equipment, and the Pletscher kickstand keeps the bike stable during breaks at the Fonseranes locks. The assistance steps back above 25 km/h.
| Model | Motor | Battery | Drivetrain | Weight (size) |
| District+ 4 Lowstep | Bosch Performance Line, 75 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Nexus 5-speed, Gates CDX belt | 25.60 kg (M) |
| District+ 5 Lowstep | Bosch Performance Line, 75 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Enviolo Trekking, Gates CDX belt | 26.70 kg (M) |
| District+ 5 | Bosch Performance Line, 75 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Enviolo Trekking, Gates CDX belt | 27.10 kg (L) |
| District+ 3 Lowstep | Bosch Active Line Plus, 50 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Shimano Nexus 8-speed, chain | 26.20 kg (M) |
Our take: the same published weight as the 545 Wh version (26.70 kg in M) for 255 Wh more: for day rides, the difference is worth it. The District+ 4 Lowstep 800 Wh remains 1.10 kg lighter, without the Enviolo or suspension seatpost.
