My guess is that it’s a new e-bike Domane+ But that’s pure speculation on my part. Anyone care to share what you know? Or other ideas?

The e-bike Praxis crankset should be a hint…

Only thing I know is it weighs 27lbs (heavier than a Turbo Creo SL, 2lbs lighter than the current Domane+ LT) and uses the TQ motor.

Battery / range is better than the Specialized as well.

Thanks for the info. People over in the mtb universe are showering raises on that new TQ motor. They say it’s basically silent, and small.

do you know anything about boost spacing or not. The Creo spacing turned me away from it. I have a perfectly good set of G27s my wife can use.. so I prefer normal 100/142.

The TQ motor allows for a traditional road bike q factor, but no idea if Trek implemented it.

I’m curious to try a road e-bike. I really like my Heckler mtb e-bike.

Id like an ebike for my wife so we could ride together at the same effort.

Is it easy to adjust the super low speed limiters to regular road cycling speeds? At least 30kph would be nice, ideally 35kph.

Im curious to find out. This TQ motor just rolled out on the Fuel EXe and it seems to be a very good mid-power motor solution, perhaps the best at the present time. We’ll see what trek does with this Domane. Could be great solution for my 79 father who loves to ride but can’t keep up ImageImage

Pretty interesting. Not sure why opt it with RSL37 wheelset, Red Etap and 40mm gravel tires, but I bet it will sell like a hotcakes.

OTOH, I'm quite interested in Fuel EXe after watching guy upgarde suspension and fork to a beefier ones.
