OVERVIEW

The Rail+ 9.8 is a carbon enduro e-MTB made for chasing after distant peaks and hammering out laps. With 160 mm front and rear travel, it's ready to rip through the rough, and it's backed by a powerful Bosch Performance CX drive system that makes long climbs and fast laps a breeze. It packs in adjustable geometry that lets you customise your bike for how and where you ride, a massive battery that keeps you going lap after lap, and a SRAM GX AXS wireless transmission for crisp shifts under load.

It's right for you if...

You chase big rides with even bigger terrain and need an e-bike that can keep up. You want plenty of suspension for gobbling up roots and rocks and a full-assist motor that doesn't wallow on punchy climbs. You care about upgrades where they matter most, like a carbon frame, upgraded suspension package and fully wireless SRAM transmission.

The tech you get

An OCLV Mountain Carbon frame with Bosch Performance CX system (85 Nm, 250 W) and a massive 800 Wh RIB 2.0 removable integrated battery. A 160 mm RockShox ZEB Select+ fork with DebonAir spring and Charger 3 RC2 damper, and RockShox Super Deluxe Select+ rear shock. Tubeless Ready Bontrager Line Comp 30 wheels, a wireless SRAM GX AXS transmission, 4-piston SRAM CODE Bronze hydraulic disc brakes and an internally-routed dropper post.

The final word

The Rail+ 9.8 is ready for epic rides that take you far beyond the beyond. With plenty of travel for rowdy terrain, a powerful motor for crushing big climbs, and a massive battery that keeps you going mile after mile, this beast of a bike is built for it all.
