Who is it for?

For a rider from 147 to 155 cm looking for an electric bike that is easy to handle, easy to store in a narrow garage and easy to lift up a kerb. It suits short everyday journeys: the school run, the market, an office a few kilometres away.

The LVR workshop view

A Lowstep frame in Alpha aluminium, designed for effortless mounting. The Verve+ 1 Lowstep in this series is built around a step-through frame: the top tube dips very low, so you step through the bike rather than swinging your leg over the saddle. The Bosch Powerpack battery sits on the down tube and the Active Line motor, the smoothest in the Bosch range, is housed at the bottom bracket.

	Verve+ 1 Lowstep (Active Line)	Verve+ 2 Lowstep (Performance Cruise)	Verve+ 3 Lowstep (Performance Line)
Level	Gentle assistance, 40 Nm	Intermediate assistance, 65 Nm	Strong assistance, 75 Nm
Construction	Powerpack battery on the down tube	Powerpack 500 Wh battery, Intuvia display	Removable integrated battery, smart system
Reference bike	22.30 kg (M)	23.58 kg (M)	26.59 kg (M)
What it means	The lightest, ideal on flat ground	More torque for the hills	The most powerful, but the heaviest

In other words: this Verve+ 1 Lowstep is a simple, light electric leisure bike for the family, 22.30 kg in M according to Trek, with all the everyday equipment fitted as standard. Its Active Line motor favours smoothness over brute force.

The Lowstep, or step-through, frame lowers the top tube as far as possible. You no longer have to swing your leg over the saddle: you step forward between the saddle and the handlebar, as you would on a scooter. For a shorter rider, that is often what makes the difference between dreading every stop and riding relaxed.

The 300 Wh Powerpack battery locks onto the down tube and can be removed with the key to charge at home. Smaller than the 400 and 500 Wh versions, it makes the bike lighter and charges faster; it is aimed at short, frequent rides rather than long days out.

Which Verve+ should you choose?

Model	Motor	Battery	Drivetrain	Weight (size)
Verve+ 1 Lowstep (Powerpack)	Bosch Active Line 40 Nm	300, 400 or 500 Wh	Shimano 8-speed 12-32	22.30 kg (M)
Verve+ 1 Lowstep (CompactTube)	Bosch Active Line 40 Nm	400 Wh	Shimano Acera 8-speed 11-40	23.30 kg (M)
Verve+ 2 Lowstep (Performance Cruise)	Bosch Performance Cruise 65 Nm	500 Wh	Shimano Acera/Altus 9-speed 11-36	23.58 kg (M)
Verve+ 3 Lowstep	Bosch Performance Line 75 Nm	545 or 800 Wh	Shimano CUES 9-speed 11-36	26.59 kg (M)

Our take: with the same frame and motor, this Verve+ 1 Lowstep comes with a 300, 400 or 500 Wh battery. The 300 Wh is the lightest option for short trips; if you often ride up to the Plateau des Poètes or Saint-Nazaire cathedral, the Verve+ 2 Lowstep brings 65 Nm.

LVR sizing advice

The Lowstep frame makes sizing more flexible than with a conventional frame: what matters most is saddle height and reach to the handlebar. The adjustable-rise stem then lets you raise or bring the grips closer by a few centimetres.

Size	XS
Rider height (cm)	147-155
Inseam (cm)	69-73
Stem (mm)	85

Your questions

What rider height is it for?	Trek designs the XS for riders from 147 to 155 cm with a 69 to 73 cm inseam.
Can the battery be charged on the bike?	Yes, or separately: it unlocks from the down tube with the key.
Do I need a licence or insurance?	No licence is needed for an e-bike; insurance and a good lock are still recommended.
Does the orange stand out?	Yes, a sparkly copper orange that is highly visible in town.

The LVR Cycles verdict

A light, approachable Verve+ 1 Lowstep, sized for smaller riders and short trips. Its sparkly copper orange gives it plenty of character.

Pros
+ Step-through frame, very easy to get on
+ Compact, light battery
+ Full city equipment

Cons
- 300 Wh is short for long rides
- 40 Nm motor is gentle on steep climbs
