The LVR workshop view

All the torque of the PX in a lighter Charter+. On this Charter+ 5 R10, the Alpha Platinum Lowstep frame houses the 90 Nm Bosch Performance Line PX motor and a 540 Wh PowerTube. The Mobie 34 fork is adjusted with a pump, the sprung seatpost firms up or softens according to your weight, and the Shimano MT420 brakes work on a large 203 mm rotor.

	Charter+ 5 (Performance Line PX)	Charter+ 4 (Performance Line)	Charter+ 5 Auto (PX + Enviolo)
Motor	90 Nm, Kiox 500 display	75 Nm, Purion 200 control	90 Nm, Kiox 500 display
Drivetrain	CUES 10-speed 11-48	CUES 9-speed, Nexus 5 or Enviolo	Automatic Enviolo + belt
Reference bike	R10 540 Wh Lowstep, 30.30 kg (M)	R9 540 Wh Lowstep, 30.80 kg (M)	Auto 540 Wh Lowstep, 30.60 kg (M)
What it means	Easier on hills and with loads	Gentle assistance, simplicity	No more gears to choose

In short: you keep the Charter+ 5 equipment with a lighter battery, for 30.30 kg in size M according to Trek. It's the choice for hilly daily commutes, where torque matters more than capacity.

A bike's comfort doesn't come from the fork alone: the sprung seatpost under the Bontrager Commuter Comp saddle absorbs the shocks that travel up into your lower back. You set its stiffness to your weight, so that it works without sinking with every pedal stroke.

The Trek Ergonomic PRO grips spread the pressure over your whole palm and reduce tingling in the fingers. The Shimano MT420 brakes, on 180 and 203 mm rotors, need little force at the lever, which also spares your hands on long descents.

Which Charter+ should you choose?

Model	Motor / battery	Drivetrain	Fork	Weight (size)
Charter+ 5 R10 540 Wh Lowstep	Bosch Performance Line PX 90 Nm / 540 Wh	Shimano CUES 10-speed	Mobie 34 air 80 mm	30.30 kg (M)
Charter+ 5 R10 800 Wh Lowstep	Bosch Performance Line PX 90 Nm / 800 Wh	Shimano CUES 10-speed	Mobie 34 air 80 mm	31.20 kg (M)
Charter+ 4 R9 540 Wh Lowstep	Bosch Performance Line 75 Nm / 540 Wh	Shimano CUES 9-speed	63 mm coil	30.80 kg (M)
Charter+ 5 Auto 540 Wh Lowstep	Bosch Performance Line PX 90 Nm / 540 Wh	Automatic Enviolo + belt	Mobie 34 air 80 mm	30.60 kg (M)

Our take: with identical comfort equipment, this R10 540 Wh weighs 0.90 kg less than the R10 800 Wh. The R9 540 Wh Lowstep (30.80 kg in M) has neither an air fork nor an adjustable seatpost.

LVR sizing advice

You get onto the Lowstep frame from the front, without lifting your leg: the size is chosen mainly on saddle height and reach. Trek's ranges overlap between M and L (170 to 173 cm); in that case, the smaller size gives a more upright position and the larger one more room for long rides. The height-adjustable stem then fine-tunes the position.

Size	S	M	L	XL
Rider height (cm)	147-155	155-173	170-185	185-203
Inseam (cm)	69-88	77-96	80-99	86-105
Wheels (in)	27.5	27.5	27.5	27.5
Seatpost (mm)	300	300	350	350
