For the cycle tourist who wants a bike that is easy to step through when loaded with panniers, and who rides long stages on the Passa Païs greenway or through the vineyards around Saint-Chinian. Offered in L and XL.
The Verve+ 4 Lowstep, the top-of-the-range step-through Verve+. It keeps the Alpha Smooth aluminium and the battery hidden in the down tube, with a lowered top tube so you can swing your leg through effortlessly. The equipment is that of the Verve+ 4: SR Suntour XCR32 fork with lockout, 11-46 cassette, 180 mm rotors and 2.40-inch tyres on Kovee rims.
| Verve+ 3 Lowstep | Verve+ 4 Lowstep | Verve+ 4 (standard frame) | |
| Level | 60 mm fork, 11-36 cassette | 63 mm lockout fork, 11-46 | Same equipment as the Lowstep |
| Construction | Connection 20 mm rims | Kovee Tubeless Ready 23 mm rims | Frame with classic step-over |
| Reference bike | 26.59 kg (M) | 23.50 kg (M) | 24.20 kg (L) |
| What it means | Touring handlebar, 160 mm brakes | 180 mm brakes, lowriser handlebar | For riders happy to swing a leg over |
In other words: at 23.50 kg in M according to Trek, the Verve+ 4 Lowstep is the lightest quoted Verve+ with a Performance Line motor, with 180 mm rotors. Its step-through frame makes it accessible to everyone, and the 545 or 800 Wh battery does the rest.
When loaded, a bike becomes trickier to get on: the step-through frame saves you swinging your leg over panniers or a bag strapped to the rack. It is a real comfort at every stop, especially as the Pletscher kickstand keeps the bike upright while you load it.
The 46-tooth sprocket and the 75 Nm motor let you climb the hills of the hinterland even with 25 kg on the rack. On the descent that follows, the 180 mm rotors keep braking stable despite the weight. The 800 Wh battery keeps charging stops to a minimum.
| Model | Motor | Battery | Drivetrain | Weight (size) |
| Verve+ 3 Lowstep | Bosch Performance Line 75 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Shimano CUES 9-speed 11-36 | 26.59 kg (M) |
| Verve+ 4 Lowstep | Bosch Performance Line 75 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Shimano CUES 9-speed 11-46 | 23.50 kg (M) |
| Verve+ 4 | Bosch Performance Line 75 Nm | 545 or 800 Wh | Shimano CUES 9-speed 11-46 | 24.20 kg (L) |
| Verve+ 2 Lowstep | Bosch Performance Line 75 Nm | 400 Wh | Shimano CUES 9-speed 11-36 | 25.40 kg (M) |
Our take: the Verve+ 4 Lowstep 800 Wh offers 255 Wh more than the 545 Wh version with identical equipment. If you prefer a classic frame, the Verve+ 4 800 Wh quotes 24.20 kg in L.
