2025 Trek Powerfly 6

[Hedgemonkey]

Hi folks,
We have just got the wife a 2025 Trek Powerfly 6 and tbh apart from Emtb and turbo settings. She is not to impressed with power in Tour+ we have customised settings and compared to her Specialized Vado 3 and my very well worn Giant Quick E in the middle settings the Trek still feels very sluggish in tour+ what settings are folks using or is it just getting used to different motor behaviour.

The Bosch Performance Line CX assistance levels can be custom tuned using the Flow app. Your dealer should have explained this to you.

IIRC, Tour+ is mostly Eco with a boost to Turbo on steep hills when you start pedaling hard. Not surprised it feels sluggish compared to Turbo.

As Stomp said, you can modify the assist or swap available modes in the Flow App. If she finds Turbo useful, I would suggest swapping in Sport - it still has lots of assist just without the massive overrun that Turbo gives you and should get a bit more range.

One caveat, there can be more modes available for your bike than the four that are currently loaded into the display and Flow. It won't hurt to check with your dealer. If so, the dealer has to load them onto your bike so that you can manage them with Flow.

Thanks for reply we have played with the settings on the flow app mainly to improve Tour+ as she is hoping to spend most of the time in that apart from challenging climbs. It improved tour+ slightly,emtb and turbo are absolutely fine and will climb up a house wall.

My suggestion is to replace Tour+ with Tour. This setting is not dynamic. It starts at a higher assist level than Tour+.
