Wild TR announced

Bosh!
Can’t see a lot of sales on this bike with the LT available at the same price point. One would be better off buying a 2025 or 2026 Wild if they want a Bosch motor. Seems like they are trying to put out a bike somewhere between the Rise LT and Wild LT, and not sure there will be enough market for that, time will tell.

Exactly my thoughts on this. Much better deals on the "old" Wild.
I haven't looked to see whether it's updated or not, but is this a way to get rid of the 'old' frames?

There might also be some contractual obligation with Bosch that still needs to be fulfilled.
Makes sense as they already have the frame molds, the motor is dead silent, can be pedaled when turned off or dead, very reliable, etc.
Would be really cool if they offered a factory Weight Weenie version. Would be easy to get it to 45#s and that would genuinely stand apart from the new Avinox version for 'trail' use. Would be well suited to a majority of e-bike riders, if we are honest. Most are not self-shuttling DH trails but instead are riding forest paths.
I think you've knocked the nail on the head, plus they have frames that probably need using up.
I don't know if that's a thing because when I ordered mine back around February and it was just a large in a standard color I still had to wait two and a half months to get it actually manufactured.
That might be more due to sourcing all the parts and putting the build together (I'm sure there will be a queue), rather than actually manufacturing the frame.
