Within the automotive world, there’s a particular class of automobiles often known as “sleepers.” These are pretty ordinary-appearing household trucksters or econo-boxes that pack a punch beneath the hood and may embarrass many efficiency automobiles. Consider the previous Ford Taurus SHO, you’re loopy uncle’s previous Grand Safari station wagon with a Cleveland V8 beneath the hood, or Grandma’s previous 1957 Chrysler 300 with the monster 375hp FirePower V8. That’s why she at all times received to church early. They appeared tame, however a sleeper automotive will go away you taking a look at tail lights in a drag race simply after you laughed it off. So it’s with Trek’s mild-mannered Allant 7+ S electrical bike. It appears to be like like a typical comfortable cruiser commuter ebike – till you begin pedaling.
Tech and Design
I believe the “S” stands for “particular sauce.”

The $3,899 Allant 7+ S is a Class III ebike, which suggests it solely provides energy when you are pedaling, there isn’t a thumb throttle or twist grip. A stout and swish aluminum body holds the built-in 500 watt-hour battery, which has to return out of the body to recharge, which is just a little bit annoying. No less than some LEDs on the battery provide you with some indication of the cost stage whereas it’s juicing up. The MTB-type pedals are related to a reliable 9-speed Shimano HG200 Alivio drivetrain and derailleur that by no means missed a beat. A backlit Bosch Purion LCD controller sits subsequent to the left grip, giving straightforward management over setting utilizing only a thumb and displaying velocity, vary and some different metrics. Easy, but efficient.
The handlebars are decidedly slender however in a great way, and Shimano 180mm hydraulic brakes entrance and rear scrub off velocity shortly. The SR Suntour Mobie25 entrance suspension fork soaked up the bumps and options preload adjustment and likewise a lockout, however I most well-liked the smoother mountain bike-like experience with the fork in play. A detachable rack and LED head and tail lights spherical out the 54-pound package deal. Bosch’s mid-drive motor (particulars under) is built-in into the crankset, and bully for them, that is the 10-year anniversary of their mid-drive tech – and it reveals. Nevertheless, because it’s a mid-mount and has to play good with the pedals, there’s a little bit of a whirr whereas it powers you up a hill.

The key to the Allant+ 7S is in that “S” designation. This model of the Allant 7 is packing one among Bosch’s strongest motors, a “Efficiency Pace” variant of their confirmed mid-drive system that punches out 75Nm or 55 pound-feet of torque. For a bicycle, that’s a (unhealthy phrase)-ton. And it reveals when using.
Set to most increase from the 500Wh detachable battery, the Allant accelerates in a short time and retains on pushing, as much as an indicated 32mph. Now you would possibly assume “huge deal, that’s not very quick,” and in a automotive, it isn’t. However on a bicycle, it’s rattling close to Warp 10. Class III bikes are purported to tail off at 28mph however I’m not complaining in regards to the additional velocity; this factor is a hoot to experience and has nice energy. In high gear on a close-by downhill I used to be even capable of punch it as much as 39mph (with solely gravity helping my pedaling), and the Allant was lifeless secure and in complete management. It additionally went up the hill at a sizzling clip.

Out within the flat, I usually needed to dial again the help stage to remain inside the new 20mph velocity limits in lots of neighborhoods, so it was good to get out on primary roads and open it up. Even with the panniers filled with groceries on the rear rack, the acceleration was brisk and the hill climbing energy is high notch – I even handed quite a lot of different ebikes, which are actually in every single place in Portland.
Conclusion
General, the Trek Allant+ 7S is a real-deal sleeper ebike. It appears to be like like a severe commuter, and it’s. It’s snug, succesful, well-built and straightforward to experience. Good trying, too. At $3,899 it’s not low-cost, however you at all times pay just a little additional for extra energy, and the 7S’ Bosch drivetrain comes via like a champ. Electrical bicycles are all about extending your vary of journey, whether or not via pedal help or a throttle, which this bike doesn’t provide.
However don’t be fooled into considering the Allant is lacking one thing by not having the free-wheeling choice, it isn’t. Bikes with throttles are neat, however they usually don’t provide close to the efficiency this bike has on faucet, usually by a longshot. When you assume throttle bikes are for cheaters or lazy riders, then right here’s your bike. It’s a must to pedal to convey the facility, however if you do, you get each train and eye-widening energy as well. It’s one of the crucial succesful ebikes I’ve examined thus far.
