Trek FX+ 2 Viper Red: the lightweight electric hybrid bike for getting around town

The Trek FX+ 2 is an electric hybrid bike designed to get you quickly from A to B in town, without the weight of a conventional e-bike: 17.69 kg in size M according to Trek. Its 40 Nm Hyena motor is housed in the rear hub, its 250 Wh battery in the frame, and it comes fitted with mudguards, a rear rack and a kickstand. Like any e-bike, it assists you up to 25 km/h. Viper Red is a bright, bold red that stands out in traffic.

Who is it for?

For the commuter who rides a few kilometres between home and work every day, for example from the outskirts of Béziers into the centre, and wants to arrive without breaking a sweat. As this colour is offered in XL, it is aimed at tall riders from 186 to 197 cm.

The LVR workshop view

The motor in the wheel: the lightweight solution. On the FX+ 2, the assistance comes from a Hyena motor housed in the rear hub, controlled by a torque sensor at the bottom bracket: the harder you push, the more it helps. The 250 Wh battery disappears into the down tube of the Alpha Gold frame, so the bike keeps the look of a classic hybrid and a weight under 18 kg.

	Hyena rear hub (FX+ 2, Dual Sport+ 2)	TQ HPR50 at the bottom bracket (FX+ 7)	Bosch CX at the bottom bracket (Allant+)
Claimed torque	40 Nm	50 Nm	The highest of these three systems
Battery	250 Wh in the down tube	TQ 360 Wh	545 or 800 Wh depending on the version
Reference bike	FX+ 2 LT, 17.75 kg (M)	FX+ 7, 19.30 kg (L)	Allant+ 6, 23.30 kg (L)
What it means	Light, simple, ideal in town	Discreet and natural, more torque	For steep climbs and heavy loads

In other words: the FX+ 2 focuses on lightness (17.69 kg in M) rather than power. Its 40 Nm motor supports steady pedalling in town and on the flat; for repeated steep gradients, a mid-drive motor such as the TQ on the FX+ 7 gives you more.

With a motor in the rear wheel, the chainset stays that of a conventional bike: a single 42-tooth steel chainring and a 9-speed Shimano 11-36 cassette, operated by an Altus derailleur. The torque sensor adjusts the assistance to your effort, which avoids any jerk when pulling away from a red light.

The 40 mm Bontrager H2 Comp tyres with reflective sidewalls absorb cobbles and kerbs, and can be seen from the side at night. The MIK-compatible rear rack takes 25 kg: enough to bring home your shopping from the Halles market or carry a laptop bag in a side pannier.

Which FX+ should you choose?

Model	Motor	Battery	Drivetrain	Weight
FX+ 2	Hyena rear hub 40 Nm	250 Wh	Shimano Altus 9-speed 11-36	17.69 kg (M)
FX+ 2 LT	Hyena rear hub 40 Nm	250 Wh	Shimano Acera 8-speed 11-40	17.75 kg (M)
FX+ 2 LT Midstep	Hyena rear hub 40 Nm	250 Wh	Shimano Acera 8-speed 11-40	17.65 kg (M)
FX+ 7	TQ HPR50 50 Nm	360 Wh	Shimano CUES 10-speed 11-48	19.30 kg (L)

Our take: the FX+ 2 (17.69 kg in M) and the FX+ 2 LT (17.75 kg) are on a par for weight; the FX+ 2 keeps a 9-speed 11-36 cassette whereas the LT moves to 8 speeds with 11-40, lower geared for climbing. The FX+ 7 steps up to 50 Nm with a TQ mid-drive motor, for 19.30 kg in L.
