Trek Rail+ 8 Gen 5 Full Suspension Electric Mountain Bike 2026

The Rail+ 8 is an aluminium enduro e-bike with big power and tons of travel for wild, ride-anything adventures. It starts with an Alpha Platinum Aluminium frame paired with a RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ RT shock and ZEB Select fork (160 mm front/rear) for making quick work of chunky backcountry rock gardens. You get the smooth-shifting performance of a Shimano XT/SLX drivetrain, stop-on-a-dime control from SRAM DB 8 4-piston disc brakes, a Bontrager Line dropper post and tubeless-ready Bontrager Line TLR 30 wheels.

Bosch Performance Line CX motor: 100 Nm upgrade ready

Bosch Performance Line CX sets the standard for eMTB performance with 85 Nm of torque out of the box, but can be tuned all the way up to 100 Nm and 750 W of power using the Bosch eBike Flow app. The Bosch smart system also has intelligent eMTB mode with Extended Boost that automatically adjusts the amount of assist based on the terrain.

New RIB 2.0

Removable Integrated Battery (RIB 2.0) makes it easy to remove your battery for more convenient charging or travelling, and you don’t have to worry about dropping it thanks to a secondary safety catch.

Bosch Mini Remote

The compact, ergonomic Mini Remote lets you easily change assist level, activate Walk mode, or turn on optional lights, all without moving your hand off the handlebar. Plus, it's wireless and connects with your System Controller via Bluetooth

Mixed wheel size

You get a 29" front wheel for monster truckin' over stuff, with a smaller 27.5" wheel out back for getting rowdy.

Adjust the suss for full send

Adjust the leverage rate with just a flip of a chip. Ride it in the Less progressive setting for a plusher feel perfect for rugged trails with square-edge bumps. Flip it to More progressive when you're hitting big features and don’t want to bottom-out, or when you want to run a coil shock.

Bosch System Controller

The System Controller gives you a quick overview of your assist mode and battery level without distracting you from the ride. It's integrated into the top tube so it's out of the way but still easy to see with LED indicators. It also connects to the eBike Flow app via Bluetooth for accessing ride stats and performing system updates.

Active Braking Pivot

Active Braking Pivot allows our engineers to tune how the suspension reacts to acceleration and braking forces independently. That means you get more confident control when you need it most.

Bosch eBike Flow app

The new eBike Flow app turns your ride into a personalised experience. Use it to customise your motor's assist behaviour, track your ride stats and integrate your data with apps like Strava and Apple Health. There's even handy features like navigation and service reminders.

Shimano XT

Shimano XT is the original mountain bike groupset and trusted by generations of mountain bikers around the world. Whatever the trail, wherever you ride, XT is your solution for mountain biking today. Reliable shifting. Superior braking. Intuitive maintenance. XT is the high performance workhorse you can count on.
