Trekking E-Bike – Nature is yours
What is required of a trekking e-bike? As a rule, it is about a high level of endurance and resilience. Whether it's a bike tour at the weekend or a planned bike trip, the electric motor will provide you with reliable support and also increase the range. In addition, you benefit from an extremely stable frame and robust luggage racks. So the next level of bike tours is not a big obstacle.
What makes an e-trekking bike?
Trekking e-bikes are electric bicycles that are specially designed for driving longer distances. The balancing act between a city bike and a mountain bike should be managed and the respective advantages such as maneuverability or off-road mobility should be combined. In order to achieve this, the reinforced frames, which resemble a city bike, are equipped with components that are otherwise only found on mountain bikes. The following main characteristics of an e-trekking bike can be highlighted:
- Very robust frames, hubs and wheels
- Ability to drive from the street to light terrain
- Very high load capacity
However, there is a catch to the lavish equipment of an e-trekking bike. This is the weight that comes about with components such as luggage racks, stable mudguards and the lighting system. However, this is compensated for as the electric motor takes the rider plus the bike from one place to another with ease. This also means no more annoying sweating on the next climb, because a trekking e-bike reliably helps in almost every situation.
The most important? – The driving characteristics!
The frames of a trekking e-bike can be described as the sporty variant of the city bike and are almost in the direction of a racing bike. In order to ensure a comfortable sitting position and to enable an upright seat, components such as the saddle, handlebars and stem must be well coordinated. This makes even the longest tours a leisurely ride and increases endurance.
Typical materials and common technology
In order to increase the torsional rigidity and damage resistance and at the same time not generate any additional weight, most e-trekking bike manufacturers rely on high-quality aluminum when manufacturing the frame.
At Leon Cycle, we consciously rely on the Das-Kit and Bafang brands for the motor and battery. These impress with very high battery capacities of up to 768 Wh. This is something you rarely see on the market and can take the driver up to 150 km.

What to look out for when buying?
Before you decide on a trekking e-bike, you should not forget to take a look at the specified range. In the case of the "range" usually refers to the average distance that gives a full charge of the battery. You have to consider that if you want to do without the support in between, the range can also be significantly higher. If you want to increase the range even further, you can use a replacement battery. This can then simply be carried in the backpack on longer tours and exchanged if necessary.
