Trek Rail 9.5 Gen 2 Best Features
- Rail shreds just as hard as its non-electric brethren, plus it powers you right back up the mountain – no shuttle or lift necessary
- The Purion controller has Walk Assist and an intelligent eMTB mode that automatically delivers the right amount of power based on your terrain

- The Bosch motor gives you plenty of power for tackling steep climbs with the efficiency to keep exploring all day
- Trek's Removable Integrated Battery (RIB) system looks great and is super user-friendly: it fully hides the battery in the frame for protection, makes it easy remove the battery without tools and lets you mount a water bottle cage

It’s a set-and-forget mode that delivers just the right amount of power so you can focus on enjoying the ride.
