Trekking bikes are versatile two-wheelers that are at home across various different environments and surfaces. They are slightly lighter than city bikes, have more gears and offer a sportier riding position, making them perfect for those adventurous weekend rides. But make no mistake, trekking bikes are also an ideal choice for your commute.
Are you a keen bikepacker? Do you enjoy relaxing bike rides through the wonders of nature, complete with the odd picnic along the way? Or do you perhaps want to take your four-legged friend along on your cycling adventures? Then the trekking bike is the right choice: this two-wheeler often features several mounting points for panniers, luggage carriers, child seats or bike trailers. Whether a leisurely ride in Belgium or an adventurous trip to Asia, Africa or elsewhere in Europe, the trekking bike is the way to go.
Are you the kind of sporty cyclist who enjoys doing all the pedalling yourself? Understandable then that you would want to go for a bike without pedal assist. Such trekking bikes are just that bit lighter than their electric counterparts. Other than that, there are very few differences between them and electric trekking bikes. Just know: if you plan on using this bike for your commute, you won't be getting to work as relaxed as you would with an electric trekking bike.
Carrying a bit of extra cargo on your ride is a breeze, with electric pedal assist supporting you up to 25 km/h. No need to test your lung capacity or fear those dreaded pit stains. How many kilometres can you cover on such an electric trekking bike? That all depends on your battery capacity, which is entirely up to you! Be sure to seek advice from your local bike dealer to make a choice that’s right for you.
