For the rider who wants to ride up the Passa Païs greenway towards the villages of the Haut-Languedoc in a day, without worrying about the way back. It will suit anyone who likes a low frame and wants a big battery to explore without counting.
The longest-range Lowstep in the range. With the Inbound+ 2 R10 LS, Trek combines the low step-over frame with the biggest battery in the family, a 600 Wh PowerTube, and the ten-speed Shimano CUES drivetrain. The Linkglide parts, thicker than on a conventional drivetrain, handle the torque of the Bosch rear hub motor well. Alpha Smooth aluminium frame.
| Shimano CUES, 10-speed (R10 LS) | Shimano ESSA, 8-speed (R8 LS) | Gates belt, 1-speed (B LS) | |
| How it works | 10 Linkglide gears | 8 gears | Single ratio, belt |
| Maintenance | Slow wear, reinforced chain | Routine maintenance | No greasing |
| Lowstep version | 22.40 kg (M), 600 Wh | 21.70 kg (M), 360 Wh | 20.50 kg (M), 360 Wh |
| What it means | Ride far, accessible frame | A good everyday compromise | The lightest, flat towns |
In short: the Inbound+ 2 R10 LS weighs 22.40 kg in M, 700 g more than the R8 LS, for an extra 240 Wh and two more gears. It's the Lowstep to choose for long rides and journeys that keep stretching.
The greenway climbs gently over long distances: terrain where the 600 Wh battery and ten gears work wonders. You keep a smooth cadence and the Bosch motor gives continuous assistance up to 25 km/h. On the way back, downhill, it steps back and the bike rolls freely.
The 50 mm Girona Comp tyres, with their puncture protection under the tread, are at ease on hard-packed sections and fine gravel. The Kovee Tubeless Ready rims allow a tubeless conversion for even more peace of mind. The reflective strip improves visibility at road crossings.
| Model | Motor / battery | Drivetrain | Frame | Weight (size) |
| Inbound+ 2 R8 LS | Bosch hub 45 Nm / 360 Wh | Shimano ESSA 8-speed | Lowstep | 21.70 kg (M) |
| Inbound+ 2 R10 LS | Bosch hub 45 Nm / 600 Wh | Shimano CUES 10-speed | Lowstep | 22.40 kg (M) |
| Inbound+ 2 B 540 LS | Bosch hub 45 Nm / 540 Wh | Gates belt, 1-speed | Lowstep | 21.40 kg (M) |
| Inbound+ 2 R10 | Bosch hub 45 Nm / 600 Wh | Shimano CUES 10-speed | Straight | 22.60 kg (L) |
Our take: for a day on the greenway, the 600 Wh of the R10 LS makes the difference compared with the R8 LS (360 Wh), for 700 g more. The B 540 LS (21.40 kg) offers 540 Wh but only one gear.
