It's right for you if...
You wanna ride your heart out on a lightweight e-MTB that rips singletrack just like a regular XC bike, but can give you an unobtrusive boost when you want one. You also want an amazing parts spec, filled with carbon and cutting edge tech like a fully wireless electronic drivetrain and our IsoStrut shock.
The tech you get
A lightweight, full OCLV Mountain Carbon frame with 60mm of travel, a 120mm RockShox SID Ultimate fork with Charger Race Day damper, remote lockout, and Trek's exclusive lightweight IsoStrut FOX Factory shock. A Fazua Evation motor and 250Wh battery that can assist up to 20 mph when it's on, and gives zero drag when it's off, plus a handlebar-mounted Fazua Remote FX controller. A SRAM XX1 Eagle AXS wireless electronic drivetrain, a Bontrager XXX carbon seatpost, and Kovee XXX 30 carbon wheels.
The final word
Our top-shelf E-Caliber is light, fast, and built to rip. It rides like an XC race bike—like a Supercaliber, in fact—until you decide you want a little boost to scramble up a climb or put in a few extra laps.
The Walkthrough
favorite_borderWhy you'll love it
- The SRAM XX1 Eagle AXS drivetrain is smart, smooth, and completely wireless
- You get a helping hand from the motor on climbs and long rides, but it's a more natural-feeling assist that gives you an overall experience that's closer to riding an analog bike than a typical e-MTB
- The drive system, including the motor, is easily removable. Just take it out, pop on the included cover, and you’ll have a standard mountain bike that weighs 2.9kg less than before
- IsoStrut gives you just enough rear suspension for cross country traction and comfort with less weight and more efficiency
- Pivotless seat stays save on weight and actively bend to help soak up trail chatter
Outside Magazine’s 2021 Best eMTB
"As expected, the E-Caliber made us feel like the World Cup racers we wish we were, but the real benefit was that we were more willing to ride, rather than drive, to our favorite trails. Logging more miles in the same amount of time is a win in our book."

"The heart of a cross country racer"
"The combination of short travel, light weight, and aggressive geometry will make for a bike that opens up the joys of long trail adventures and ripping fast singletrack to a segment of riders that may not otherwise get to experience that thrill."

Features
E-Caliber has the same innovative IsoStrut rear suspension as World Cup-winning Supercaliber. You get 60mm of integrated rear travel—just the right amount of comfort and traction, without the weight or flex of traditional full suspension.

Smart software for the trail
E-Caliber is equipped with intelligent Fazua software called BLACK PEPPER, which allows the motor to respond immediately as you start to pedal, delivers more power over a wider cadence range, and lets you customize your user settings.
Removable drivepack
Remove the motor and drivepack to save 6.4 lbs./2.9 kg on days when you don't need the boost. The included cover also turns the down tube into extra storage.
Trek's mountain-specific carbon fiber is tougher carbon, with unique materials and layup procedures, Trek's advanced engineering, and a higher standard of testing.

Fast and efficient
Fazua's lightweight drive system adds a punch of power when you need it, but rides and feels like a traditional bike when you don't. You won't feel much drag or resistance when you turn it off or pass the max level of assist. The system is also compatible with a smartphone app to let you check battery status and customize your ride.
Rapid Drive 108 rear hub
With 108 points of engagement, Rapid Drive gives you nearly instant acceleration instead of a clunky lag when you step on the pedals. You get smooth, immediate power to blast out of corners and hammer through the rough stuff. And that extra pedal ratchet adds control that can make all the difference when tackling a tricky climb.
Boost148/110
Wider dropouts (110mm front, 148mm rear) give you the stiffness of a 27.5" wheel with all the benefits of a 29" wheel, and Boost148 in the rear lets you run wider tires and a larger chainring without affecting q-factor and pedaling efficiency.
Complete Tubeless System
Tubeless Ready rims and tires make it easy to ditch the tubes so you get better traction, fewer flats, and less weight. You're ready to roll right out of the box with the included TLR rim strips, valves, and sealant.

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 retailer.
