R120,000.00
The E-Caliber 9.6 is a carbon electric mountain bike that rides – and looks – like a traditional cross-country bike. The compact Fazua drive system lets you do more of what you love with subtle, natural-feeling assist that doesn’t overpower the physical and technical challenges of the trail.

This bike is perfect for XC riders who want to push a little further or a little steeper. It’s also great for anyone who needs a little boost to motivate them to ride more, to get up climbs or to keep pace with faster groups.
An OCLV Mountain Carbon frame with 60 mm of travel, a 120 mm RockShox Gold RL fork and Trek’s IsoStrut FOX Performance shock. A Fazua Ride Trail 50 drive system that can assist up to 20 mph (25 km/h in Europe) when it’s on, and gives zero drag when it’s off, plus a Shimano Deore 12-speed drive train, dropper post for getting low on descents and Bontrager Kovee Comp 23 wheels.
Fazua’s lightweight drive system adds a punch of power when you need it, but rides and feels like a traditional bike when you don’t. You won’t feel much drag or resistance when you turn it off or pass the max level of assist. The system is also compatible with a smartphone app to let you check battery status and customise your ride.
The E-Caliber is equipped with intelligent Fazua software called BLACK PEPPER, which allows the motor to respond immediately as you start to pedal, delivers more power over a wider cadence range and lets you customise your user settings.
Remove the motor and drivepack to save 2.9 kg/6.4 lb on days when you don’t need the boost. The included cover also turns the down tube into extra storage.
The E-Caliber has the same innovative IsoStrut rear suspension as the World Cup-winning Supercaliber. You get 60 mm of integrated rear travel – just the right amount of comfort and traction, without the weight or flex of traditional full suspension.
Trek’s mountain-specific carbon fibre is tougher carbon, with unique materials and lay-up procedures, Trek’s advanced engineering, and a higher standard of testing.
