At just 16.5kg, it’s noticeably lighter than many e-bikes, which makes climbing stairs, storing it indoors or navigating tight spaces far more manageable. The aluminium frame keeps things strong without adding bulk, and its tidy lines hide the complete Mahle X35 drive system so the bike still looks and feels like a traditional urban ride.A carbon fork brings extra stiffness and steering accuracy, giving the bike a sharp, confident feel on busy roads and tighter commuter paths. The riding position is relaxed but efficient, helping you stay comfortable while still feeling fast on the flats.Shimano’s 9-speed setup combines an Acera shifter with an Alivio rear mech for crisp gear changes. The 11–34 cassette and 40T chainring give you a range suited to gentle climbs and faster commuting sections. Tektro R280 hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm rotors provide reliable stopping power whether the roads are dry, wet or unpredictable.The wheelset pairs 700c double-wall rims with a thru-axle front hub and the Mahle motor hub at the rear. WTB ByWay 40c tyres strike a good balance between speed and cushioning, giving smooth rolling on tarmac with enough volume to soak up rough patches and potholes.The Mahle X35 system is designed for subtle, natural-feeling assistance. The 250Wh battery sits neatly inside the frame, providing helpful support when pulling away from junctions or riding into headwinds. The low weight of the bike means you can ride comfortably even with the motor off, and the simple Mahle interface keeps controls clear and minimal.Raleigh equips the Trace for everyday life with lights, pannier compatibility and durable contact points such as a Selle Royal Vivo saddle and aluminium platform pedals. It’s a practical setup for commuting, errands or simply enjoying the freedom of riding without worrying about traffic or timetables.Effortless, quiet and nimble, the Trace is built to help you move around the city with ease and confidence.
