The Trek Rail+ 9.8 GX AXS Gen 5 is a premium carbon enduro e-MTB built for riders who want top-level performance on big mountain terrain. With a powerful Bosch Performance Line CX motor, huge 800Wh battery, FOX Performance Elite suspension and wireless SRAM GX AXS shifting, it is built to go further, descend harder and feel sharper everywhere on the trail.
OCLV Mountain Carbon frame + Bosch Performance Line CX + 800Wh battery + FOX Performance Elite 160mm suspension + SRAM GX AXS wireless drivetrain + SRAM Maven Bronze brakes.
The Rail+ 9.8 GX AXS Gen 5 is built for riders who want more than just range and power. It takes Trek’s big-battery, big-travel Rail platform and adds a lighter, more refined OCLV Mountain Carbon frame along with upgrades in the areas that matter most when the trails get tougher and the pace gets quicker.
It is aimed at riders chasing bigger terrain, rougher descents and longer days in the mountains, while still wanting the climbing support and range that make a full-power e-MTB so addictive.
Power comes from Bosch’s Performance Line CX motor, giving you 85Nm of torque as standard with the option to tune output further through the Bosch Flow app. That means steep technical climbs, long transitions and extra laps all feel more manageable, while Bosch’s smart assistance modes help keep delivery smooth and intuitive.
Trek pairs that with an 800Wh RIB 2.0 battery, giving the Rail+ 9.8 serious long-range capability for proper mountain days. The removable battery design makes charging and travel easier, and the bike is compatible with Bosch PowerMore if you want even more distance on tap.
Suspension is one of the key upgrades here. The FOX Performance Elite Float 38 fork and FOX Performance Elite Float X rear shock deliver 160mm of travel with a more planted, supportive and refined feel than lower-tier options. It is a setup built for rougher descents, bigger impacts and faster riding.
Trek’s adjustable geometry and leverage-rate settings are still part of the package too, so you can tune the bike to feel plusher or more progressive depending on your terrain and riding style.

The SRAM GX Eagle AXS T-Type drivetrain gives the Rail+ 9.8 crisp, reliable wireless shifting, even under heavy load. That makes sense on a bike designed for aggressive riding, where fast and accurate shifting can make a real difference on technical trails.
Braking is handled by SRAM Maven Bronze 4-piston brakes, bringing huge power and control for steep descents and repeated hard braking. Bontrager Line Comp 30 tubeless-ready wheels, carbon bars and a Bontrager Line Dropper round out a very serious build kit.
The Rail+ 9.7 and Rail+ 9.8 GX AXS both share the same carbon Rail platform, Bosch CX motor and 800Wh battery, but the 9.8 GX AXS adds major upgrades in suspension, drivetrain, brakes and cockpit spec for riders who want a more premium feel everywhere on the bike.

Choose the Rail+ 9.7 if you want excellent carbon performance with strong value and a very capable all-round build.
