It has been developed for riders who don't want to compromise and are looking for the ultimate trail bike.

Bosch update July 2025: Are you ready for more power?

From July 2025, you can increase the torque of the Gen 5 Bosch motors (BDU38) to up to 100 Nm using the Flow app. Your advantage: noticeably more thrust and up to 400% motor support. You can use the eBike Flow app to customise the riding modes and adapt the performance precisely to your riding style.

High-quality equipment for limitless adventures

The Rail 9.7 Gen 5 comes with a lightweight yet robust OCLV Mountain carbon frame designed for demanding terrain. The Bosch Performance CX motor with 85 Nm torque provides powerful support, while the integrated RIB 2.0 battery with 800 Wh capacity guarantees an impressive range. The RockShox ZEB Select fork and the RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ shock, both with 160 mm travel, offer you full control and comfort on any terrain. The mix of Shimano XT and SLX components ensures precise and reliable shifting, while the hydraulic 4-piston disc brakes from SRAM provide strong braking power in any situation.

Adaptability and flexibility for any terrain

The Trek Rail 9.7 Gen 5 is not only powerful, but also extremely adaptable. Thanks to its adjustable geometry, you can optimise the bike to suit your riding style and the respective route. The optional angled bearing shell offers you additional options to further refine the bike's riding characteristics. The 800 Wh RIB 2.0 battery is easy to remove, which makes charging and transport particularly straightforward. For even longer and more epic adventures, you can equip the bike with the Bosch PowerMore additional battery to extend your range.
