Trek Powerfly 9 LT Plus test

Downhill mountain biker in action on steep rocky trail.
Watch a fearless biker tackle challenging terrain in a natural landscape.

The Trek, with this new model, stands as one of the reference e-bikes. Its aggressive geometry and the excellent "harmony" with the rear shock absorber make it a beast in the toughest crashes and at high speeds. The 650b tires, combined with the electric assistance, have their own reason since electric is often nice to take it to the limit even uphill and not just downhill, a terrain where it defends itself to the greatest extent. E-bike for me is adventure, discovery, not merely downhill performance.

ppgad@pucrs.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
