For the rider who does their shopping, at the covered market in the town centre, the weekly market or on journeys with panniers, and wants enough energy in reserve to charge only once or twice a week depending on their journeys.
Three brakes for an everyday bike. The District+ 4 Coaster Lowstep combines two Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes on the levers with a coaster brake in the Nexus rear hub: one backward push on the pedal is enough to slow down. The drivetrain stays chain-driven, a Shimano HG40 on a 27-tooth sprocket, which keeps wear parts common and easy to replace.

| 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: a very accessible step-through District+ 4, with the extra safety of a coaster brake and the widest size range in the family, from XS to XL.
A loaded bike needs more energy, especially when pulling away and on climbs. The 75 Nm motor makes up for the weight of the panniers, and the 800 Wh battery, 255 Wh more than the 545 Wh, absorbs that extra demand without depriving you of assistance. The Pletscher Comp Flex 18 kickstand holds the bike steady while you load it.
When the rack is full, the coaster brake helps hold the bike back on descents, alongside the two Shimano MT200 disc brakes. The SR Suntour NVX30 coil fork, with adjustable preload, can be firmed up for loaded riding. The assistance cuts out at 25 km/h, a typical urban cruising speed.
| 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+ 4 Coaster Belt Lowstep | Bosch Performance Line, 75 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Nexus 5 with coaster brake, belt | 26.00 kg (M) |
| District+ 4 Coaster Lowstep | Bosch Performance Line, 75 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Nexus 5 with coaster brake, chain | 26.00 kg (M) |
| District+ 4 Guard Lowstep | Bosch Performance Line, 75 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Nexus 5-speed, chain | 26.00 kg (M) |
Our take: the same Trek weight as the 545 Wh (26.00 kg in M) and 255 Wh more: for riding with a load, this is the most relaxed version. The belt-driven District+ 4 Lowstep, without a coaster brake, comes down to 25.60 kg in M.
