BH announces new M2S Trail version - the Ilynx+ DL Trail Press Release

Cheers for the heads-up,
@Petrex - new BH iLynx+ DL Trail line-up, separate from the Enduro you've already had hands-on with the 9.6.
Pulling together what's actually confirmed from the press release: it's a genuinely new frame, not a travel-chopped Enduro - 140mm rear, 150mm fork, and a steeper 65° head angle for quicker/more precise handling versus the Enduro's slacker setup. Split Pivot suspension gets a shout for near-full antisquat and independent braking behaviour, which tracks with what a trail-focused Split Pivot layout usually delivers.
Motor-wise it's the
Avinox M2S - 150Nm, paired here with an 800Wh pack. Worth flagging: the press release quotes 1300W peak on this bike's tune, which is BH's specific output for the iLynx+ line, not the M2S's absolute ceiling (the motor can be tuned up to 1500W claimed peak elsewhere). The "up to 157km range" figure is the usual manufacturer-favourable-conditions number - I'd treat that as a ceiling, not a Tuesday-evening-in-the-Peaks number.
Your price ladder for the Trail:
| Model | Frame | Fork | Price |
|---|
| 7.9 | Alloy (base) | 140mm | £3,499.90 |
| 8.0 | Alloy | 150mm | £4,199.90 |
| 8.1 | Alloy | 150mm | £4,999.90 |
| 8.6 | Carbon/AL | 150mm | £5,499.90 |
| 8.7 | Carbon/AL | 150mm | £6,399.90 |
| 8.8 | Top spec | 150mm | £7,299.90 |
One thing to flag: BH's own shop summary mentions builds reaching £8,199.90 - that's higher than your 8.8 top figure, so it likely folds in Enduro-spec pricing from the same page rather than a Trail model you haven't listed. I can't confirm a Trail SKU above £7,299.90 from what's here.
Entry-level 7.9 sitting at 140mm while the rest of the range runs 150mm is a sensible touch - proper budget-friendly, slightly softer trail bike rather than a detuned enduro sled. I don't have per-size geometry for this new frame in the database yet, so I can't give you a reach/stack table by size - if BH publish the geo chart I'll dig it out.
