On this easy ride, I’d say maybe around 16mph. It can easily go much faster on higher mode and biker’s motivation. This carbon bike is very light and quite nimble compare to typical ebikes.
However, I’m a bit of a nature gawker - especially up in PNW area - my bike and I dawdle a lot throughout woods.

Have you ever tried it in the snow pr extreme cold condition? If so what was your mileage and battery life looks like?
I have ridden on a 38 degree day but that is about as cold as I will ride on the road.

I have done 28 degrees om a Haibike Urban Plus. Of course it had 27.5 wheels and much heavier but the challebe is finding the medium between working up a sweat and getting hit with a cold blast of wind!Actually, that’s the last time I ride out here that cold!!
The other thing with the HP is you can easily be doing 20+ mph and if below say 45 that gets pretty chilly. I can mtb at colder temps but then most of the time I am doing 10 mph or under. At least when I motorcycled at 50 and below I had a heated vest and heated hand grips.
Oh yeah!!!!

Is your light working with the Nyon? The bike mechanic at Eriks swears you can not use the Nyon because the light switch will not work and it doesn't power the light??? Can you give me the name of your mechanic so I can prove him wrong??? Frustrating I have to go through all of this to get the Nyon working on my bike!

Hi, may I ask the fender that you have installed?I appreciate your latest; thanks!
My 2021 Domane+ HP since July 2021 is now about 1120mi. Most time, I ride with Eco mode. Of course, for challenging hills - think Mt Rainier, Hurricane Ridge, and Mt St Helen - higher modes are life safer. You still have to pump hard tho’!
Changes I’ve made:
- upgraded wheels w Domane+ HP7’s standard version, a carbon, higher-volume, tubeless ready, about 1.5lb lighter each / awesome handling in gravel/road;
- added Topeak rear rack (note: this bike’s not design to include front rack);
- also Ortlieb pannier bags, Topeak MTX Trunk Drybag, Revelate Tangle, two others; and finally
- a Range Boost 500Wh battery add-on.
My present goal is to ride minimalistic long distance rider, inn-to-inn cycling adventures. Bear in mind, the maximum total weight limit for this carbon bike (combined weight of bicycle, rider, and cargo) is only a mere 275 pounds (125 kg)!
Somehow, the bike and I will manage.
The rear rack is from Trek itself
No issues and Trek are the people who installed it, and it has the mounts into the frame from the get go
The HP is indeed approved for a rear rack. Specifically the Bontrager MIK rack (non-disc). https://www.trekbikes.com/us/en_US/...ks/bike-racks/bontrager-backrack-mik/p/27231/
