    Allant+7 thoughts/review

    I wasn’t aware that you can perform this update, but it is something I might consider doing … now that I have experienced the EMTB mode on my new Powerfly 9. I expected it to be good for off road (brilliant actually) but it has surprised me that I am finding I prefer it on paved trails, too...

    Trek Powerfly 4 & 5

    To me, the Powerfly is simply brilliant. I waited 11 months for my 9 Equipped and it was worth every day and dollar. It takes the best of full suspension mountain bikes and blends in electric assist like God Himself did the engineering. The chassis is tweaked to make just good enough on road...

    2022 Powerfly 9 Equipped - Wow!

    Ordered January 15, 2021. Received December 17, 2021. AMAZING. After nine months on my Allant and 1,100 miles, I am sooo enjoying this Powerfly. It’s magic on the trails and a delight on pavement. I think this type of ebike is going to dominate the market. Tim

    RGV, I am pleasantly surprised by how much I prefer the panniers to a top box. They are fantastic. Keep weight low and hold a lot. So I no longer want a top box. The Bontrager panniers i bought are made for the Allant+8S goofy rack but work like a charm. Trek ain’t dumb. Tim

    New member, looking to get into ebikes

    looks great! i had a mis-hap with my folding handlebars on my Luna Mosso so recommend you consider a couple of zip ties on that clasp, just for insurance. that thing looks fun!!!

    I’m so glad she likes it! Me thinks trek is onto something special with the powerfly. Time will tell but I predict big growth in this type of ebike. Thanks Tim

    oberst - i think the Powerfly will be amazing because so many opportunities to ride off road trails that provide some of the most beautiful rides through the woods, smelling the pine trees like it's Christmas, seeing the sun rays through the trees, etc. we are finding we love riding through the...

    great weekend of riding in and around Traverse City a total of about 110 miles with my wife. wow do i love this bike. we did some moderately serious off road trails. sport mode just rips up long grades. mud, snow, wet it went right through. i guess i haven't lost all my mountain bike riding...

    thank you for the recommendation! the only hitch might be that i wanted to go tubeless. the hurricanes are listed as tube-only. love those knobs on the sides! i could use some more grip. the standard tires are about as bad as you could design for off road!

    Off road trail ride - Yesterday i took my Allant off road for about four or five miles of mostly smooth trails. (Riley Trails in Holland, Michigan) Tire pressure was 30 psi front and rear which is the lowest number on the sidewall of the tires. Well, well, well .. 2.4" wide "street" tires did...
