Rail+ 9.8 is a carbon enduro e-MTB made for chasing after distant peaks and hammering out laps. With 160mm front and rear travel, its ready to rip through the rough, and its 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 customize 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.
  • Rail+ delivers adventure with plenty of travel and power for getting after epic rides that take you peak to peak or chasing endless enduro laps
  • You get upgrades where they matter, like a wireless SRAM transmission and RockShox suspension package
  • You can tweak your geometry and suspension leverage rate for how you ride, and add in adjustable angle headset cups (sold separately) for even more adjustability
  • The powerful Bosch Performance CX system goes full gas up steep climbs and keeps you cool for the descents
  • The massive 800Wh RIB 2.0 battery supports you for big miles and can be easily removed for travel or storage

Bosch Performance Line CX motor

Bosch Performance Line CX sets the standard for eMTB performance with up to 85Nm of torque and an intelligent eMTB mode with Extended Boost that automatically adjusts the amount of assist based on the terrain.

New RIB 2.0

Removable Integrated Battery (RIB 2.0) makes it easy to remove your battery for more convenient charging or traveling, and you dont have to worry about dropping it thanks to a secondary safety catch.

Mixed wheel size

You get a 29" front wheel for monster truckin over stuff, with a smaller 27.5" wheel out back for getting rowdy.

Adjust the suss for full send

Adjust leverage rate with just a flip of a chip. Ride it in the Less progressive setting for a plusher feel perfect for rugged trails with square-edge bumps. Flip it to More progressive when youre hitting big features and don’t want to bottom-out, or when you want to run a coil shock.

Transition to transmission

SRAM Eagle T-Type transmission mounts directly to the frame, skipping that pesky derailleur hanger of yesteryear. This makes for a more robust system thats not only cleaner looking, its also more precise under load, and easier to set up.

Bosch System Controller

The System Controller gives you a quick overview of your assist mode and battery level without distracting you from the ride. Its integrated into the top tube so its out of the way but still easy to see with LED indicators. It also connects to the eBike Flow app via Bluetooth for accessing ride stats and performing system updates.
