This bike is a great fit for a trail rider who wants to extend their range and keep riding longer days without feeling like they're on a heavy, overtly "e-bike" machine — someone linking up longer loops out the KVR, tackling climbs around Knox Mountain with a bit of extra help, or commuting between Kelowna neighbourhoods on days they'd rather save their legs for the trail. They'll appreciate how naturally the TQ HPR60 motor blends in, and the adaptability of the Fuel+ platform as their riding style evolves.

Is the Trek Fuel+ EX 9.7 right for riding the KVR or Okanagan Rail Trail?
Yes — with a natural-feeling TQ HPR60 motor and 580Wh battery, the Fuel+ EX 9.7 has plenty of assist for longer rail-trail days or valley loops, while still handling like a proper trail bike when the terrain gets technical.

How far can I ride on a single charge, and what factors affect range?
Range depends on your assist mode, terrain, rider weight, and temperature — Eco mode will stretch the 580Wh battery considerably further than High mode on steep, technical trails. Our team can walk you through real-world range expectations for your riding style when you come into the shop.
