KERAM 10

For MTB speed, tire choice and rolling resistance matter a lot, and that's baked into the score. When you push the pace, it's neither sluggish nor razor-fast - more of a versatile middle ground. Most of the story comes from typical trail-width tires and a more budget-friendly drivetrain that focuses on value. On hardpack, the tire setup is biased toward rolling speed on firm ground.

Climbing rating: 6.3/10. Within e-mountain bikes, it sits around the middle. The low gear should feel friendly on most hills. That lowest gear comes out around 18.8 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~43% for low-gear climbing. “Gear inches” sounds nerdy, but it’s just a quick way to describe how easy your lowest gear is to turn uphill. Lower usually means easier. E-assist can take the sting out of steep ramps, especially at lower speeds. It’s set up so climbs feel controlled rather than a grind. Specs can vary by size and build, and some manufacturer details aren’t always published, so treat this as a strong guide rather than a guarantee.

Suspension capability comes out at 5/10. Bucket: “Confident trail control”. That typically means noticeably better bump absorption and more consistent tracking on rougher sections. The fork does the smoothing; the rear stays straightforward and efficient. This level usually brings more reliable wheel tracking on rough patches and repeated hits.

Comfort fit - comfort-leaning without feeling sluggish. Because the bar sits about 3 mm below the saddle (a very small drop), and you'll be stretched forward about 558 mm in total (long). Estimated lean is about 21 degrees.

Net result: Adjustable. The cockpit is modular (separate stem and handlebar), so it is easier to adjust or swap fit parts. Also, Routing is relatively straightforward, which helps when you change cockpit parts.

Comfort comes out to 6.4/10, which usually translates to a nicely smooth ride. That’s why it’s labeled Balanced. The posture is more upright (posture 4/10), which keeps things more relaxed, especially on long rides.

This looks like strong value, even if it’s not the absolute cheapest listing. Value is scored 1–10: higher is better value, lower means you’re paying more than similar bikes. Uses MSRP as a baseline; real-world prices can be lower (discounts can change the value). Based on the spec estimate, it comes in about 10% under the typical level for similar builds. Among comparable bikes, it sits around the middle on price (cheaper than about 65% of listings). To anchor it: price €3.744 versus an estimated €4.168 for a similar build. Put simply: it’s competitively priced for what you get.

This setup is aimed at fast trail riding on less extreme terrain. It has about 100 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which suits smoother trails. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
