Trek Rail 9.8 XT Gen 3 geometryĪlthough this Gen 3 bike is no longer available, the Gen 4 that replaces it shares a frame and most components. Bosch’s colour Kiox 300 display is fitted to the top tube, offering ride data and navigation functionality. This, the brands claim, is the most responsive shock on the market thanks to fewer seals and the lack of an internal floating piston, where the damper shaft actually ‘exits’ from the bottom of the shock.īosch’s Smart System Performance Line CX motor is powered by the brand’s 750Wh battery. Trek claims this design improves on-the-brakes suspension performance.ĪBP is combined with a ThruShaft shock, co-developed by Trek and RockShox. Using Trek’s Active Braking Pivot (ABP) – where the seat-to-chainstay pivot is concentric with the rear wheel’s axle – the Rail has 160mm of travel. There are water bottle cage and accessory mounts within the front triangle.Ĭhain-slap protection is fitted to the driveside chainstay and the Boost 148 rear-axle spacing is matched with SRAM’s Universal Derailleur Hanger. Its cables are routed internally with integrated guides, entering the frame via ports on the down tube and exiting close to the derailleur and rear brake. Trek’s Knock Block headset is fitted, stopping the bars from over rotating and potentially damaging the bike’s top tube, or brake or gear cables. The Rail’s OCLV Mountain carbon fibre has been developed with durability and strength in mind, resulting in the chunky 1.8in ebike fork-steerer compatible head tube and oversized 34.9mm-diameter seat tube. Bosch’s Performance Line CX motor is powerful, and after a software update, very frugal.
