Ready to ride

It's never been easier to get out and go! Verve+ comes with everything you need to ride, like fenders to keep you dry, a rear rack for bags, and front and rear lights that turn on with your bike.

Mid-motor placement

The motor is housed around the bottom bracket, keeping the center of balance lower for the ultimate in stability, comfort, and control.

Bosch Active Line Plus

The Bosch Active Line Plus motor offers 50 Nm of torque for a smooth ride and just the right amount of support. The 250-watt motor is centrally located near the bottom bracket and supports speeds of up to 20mph.

Bosch PowerTube 500Wh

This latest Bosch battery sets the standard in integration and has 500Wh for an extended range.

Bosch Purion Display

Bosch's Purion display features a fully-functional speedometer with a backlit display, service interval indicator, and battery range indicator. Its thoughtful design allows riders to scroll through functions or choose the right level of support while maintaining contact with handlebars.

Hard-Case Ultimate

Bontrager's top level of defense is the best of both worlds, combining the benefits of Hard-Case with the proven sub-tread protection of Hard-Case Lite for a tire that accelerates quicker, rolls faster, and lasts longer than competing brands. The ultimate in flat protection!

Hydraulic disc brakes

Hydraulic disc brakes offer the absolute strongest stopping power in all conditions, including wet and muddy.

Stepthrough geometry

Easy-on, easy-off stepthrough frame is perfect for anybody not interested in slinging a leg over the top tube.

    Sizing & fit

    The charts below show our recommended sizes based on height, but there are some other factors, like arm and leg length, that determine a great fit. That’s why you’ll see some overlap in our recommendations. Not every rider who’s 5´8˝, for example, will fit on the same size bike. The best way to find your perfect fit is to consult the experts at your local Trek retailer.
