Who is it for?

For the rider who rides in all weathers, leaves the bike outside or in a damp garage and doesn't want demanding mechanics. It will also appeal to anyone who has neither the time nor the inclination to tinker.

The LVR workshop view

Belt and internal gear hub: clean mechanics. This Charter+ 4 Lowstep replaces the chain and derailleur with a Gates CDX belt and a Shimano Nexus 5-speed hub. The gears work protected inside the hub shell, and the belt needs neither oil nor grease. The bolt-on adjustable rear dropout on the Alpha Platinum frame is used here to set the belt tension.

	Shimano CUES derailleur	Nexus 5 hub + belt	Enviolo hub + belt
How it works	9 sprockets and a Linkglide chain	5 gears enclosed in the hub	Continuously variable, no steps
Maintenance	Chain needs cleaning and lubing	Grease-free belt, sealed hub	Grease-free belt, sealed hub
Reference bike	Charter+ 4 R9, 30.80 kg (M, 540 Wh)	Charter+ 4 Nexus 5, 30.60 kg (M, 540 Wh)	Charter+ 4 Enviolo, 31.60 kg (M, 540 Wh)
What it means	Widest gear range	Shifts at a standstill, clean	The ideal gear at any moment

In short: the Charter+ 4 Nexus 5 540 Wh Lowstep puts peace of mind ahead of gear range. At 30.60 kg in size M according to Trek, it even weighs slightly less than the derailleur-equipped R9 version.

An exposed derailleur goes out of adjustment at the slightest knock or in a tight parking spot. Here, the whole gear-change mechanism sits inside the Nexus C7000 hub: nothing sticks out from the side of the wheel, and the bike copes better with bike racks and the bumps of urban life.

The bolt-on adjustable rear dropout on the Alpha Platinum frame lets you tension the belt precisely. Once set, it stays stable for a long time; we check it at every service, along with the condition of the Bosch motor and the brake pads.

Which Charter+ should you choose?

Model	Motor / battery	Drivetrain	Fork	Weight (size)
Charter+ 4 Nexus 5 belt 540 Wh Lowstep	Bosch Performance Line 75 Nm / 540 Wh	Nexus 5 + belt	63 mm coil	30.60 kg (M)
Charter+ 4 Nexus 5 belt 800 Wh Lowstep	Bosch Performance Line 75 Nm / 800 Wh	Nexus 5 + belt	63 mm coil	31.50 kg (M)
Charter+ 4 Enviolo belt 540 Wh Lowstep	Bosch Performance Line 75 Nm / 540 Wh	Enviolo City + belt	63 mm coil	31.60 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)

Our take: the same bike as the blue and green colours, only the shade changes. To ride further between charges, the Nexus 5 800 Wh Lowstep adds 260 Wh for 0.90 kg (31.50 kg in M).

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	300	300

What servicing does the Nexus hub need?	Periodic servicing in the workshop; in between, it needs nothing from you.
Can the bike be left outside?	It copes with rain, but shelter extends the life of the battery and components.
Is the belt noisy?	No, it's virtually silent, even in dry weather.
Is the black glossy?	Dark Web is a deep black with an elegant finish.
