More capability for more demanding riding

The Rail+ 8 Gen 5 takes everything that makes the Rail platform great and steps it up with more capable suspension and drivetrain performance. It’s built for riders who are pushing harder, riding rougher terrain and want a bike that keeps up.

Whether you're heading deep into the mountains or smashing out repeated enduro laps, this bike delivers the control, power and reliability needed to ride with confidence.

Bosch CX power with upgrade potential

The Bosch Performance Line CX motor delivers 85Nm of torque with smooth, responsive assistance across all terrain. Using the Bosch Flow app, you can unlock even more power, pushing output up to 100Nm and 750W for maximum performance.

The 800Wh Removable Integrated Battery (RIB 2.0) gives you serious range for long rides, and can be easily removed for charging or transport. Add a PowerMore range extender and you can go even further.

RockShox ZEB and 160mm travel

Up front, the RockShox ZEB Select fork delivers stiffness and control for aggressive riding, while the RockShox Deluxe Select+ RT shock keeps things planted at the rear. With 160mm of travel front and rear, this bike is built to handle proper enduro terrain.

Adjustable geometry and leverage rate allow you to fine-tune the bike to your riding style, whether you want a plush setup or something more progressive for bigger hits.
