Trek makes a good bike. Unfortunately, not all are built that well.

Fenders are great when riding in the rain. Even hard core racers use them on wet training rides.
Enjoy the new bikes!

My Wife, Daughter, SIL and I all have Lectric E-Bikes. We have been very happy with them except for the seats. My Wife and I swapped out our seats for Cloud9 seats.

We just got back from a ride and my backside is hurting, we made need some kind of upgrade in the seat department.

Seats are tricky, finding one that you like is a very personal thing and proper adjustment is vital. Play around with the forward/back position, tilt, etc and see if that helps. If it doesnt, start looking as there are about 1000 different seats out there - one for every bum as they say....

I solved that problem with this suspension seat post:

Redshift Sports ShockStop Suspension Seatpost - Components

Buy the Redshift Sports ShockStop Suspension Seatpost online or shop all Components from Competitivecyclist.com.

It isn't cheap but I figure my butt was worth it.

You need at least 3.75" of clearance between the seat rails and the top of the seat tube for a good fit. It's only available in 27.2 MM so depending on the diameter of your existing seat post, you may also need a shim.

I have a suspension seat post, it came on the bike, but it might not be the best.

I plan to add a suspension seat post to my ebike.

When I bought my bike they sat me down on a small piece of sponge rubber. When I stood up there was two indentations where the base of the pelvis had been. They rolled two small ball bearings into those indentations and measured the distance between them. The tape measure was applied to the range of seats they had in the shop. Where the distance fitted best, that was the seat I bought. The seat is a hard one and the only time I notice it is after about two-n-a-hours of quick trail riding.
