VUCA AM 2

This off-road speed rating describes how quickly the bike rolls under pedal power on smoother ground. That's why it's a balanced setup rather than a pure speed machine. The score is largely shaped by typical trail-width tires, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, and a capable drivetrain that supports steady speed.

Uphill performance score: 7.0/10. Within e-mountain bikes, it lands above average. It’s set up for steady spinning on climbs. Your easiest gear lands around 18.2 gear inches. On the ‘easier low gear’ scale, it sits around ~59% versus similar bikes. Gear inches is basically “how easy is the easiest gear”. Lower numbers help you keep your legs spinning on steep bits. E-assist can take the sting out of steep ramps, especially at lower speeds. You’ll be able to keep a steady spin even when it gets steep. Different builds can shift the feel a bit, and some manufacturer specs aren’t always publicly listed, so consider this a helpful direction.

Suspension sits at 7/10, in “High-impact ready”. It’s designed to stay composed through rough sections and repeated hits. With suspension in the front and rear, the bike can stay more settled through repeated bumps. It’s designed to stay composed when impacts come quickly one after another, especially at higher speeds.

Comfort fit - less tuck and easier on neck and shoulders. Some measurements were missing, so part of this is estimated.

That is why it is in the Adjustable bucket. Why this fit flexibility rating: Because the bar and stem are separate, changing reach or bar shape is usually straightforward. Also, Cable routing is on the simpler side, which helps adjustability.

Ride comfort is 8.2/10 — on a real ride it feels very smooth. Within Enduro, Firm basically means 'less plush than the softest builds' even though the ride still feels very smooth. The posture is neutral (posture 5/10), which gives a steady, predictable feel without pushing you too far forward.

This is priced well above what we’d usually expect for a similar setup. The value score is 1–10. Higher means better value for money; lower means the price is high for what you get. Uses MSRP as a baseline; real-world prices can be lower (discounts can change the value). On the spec comparison, it sits roughly 35% above what similar builds typically cost. Compared with similar bikes, it trends a little expensive (cheaper than about 27% of listings). To anchor it: price €8.925 versus an estimated €6.622 for a similar build. Bottom line: the price looks high for what’s included.

This bike is built for rougher, more technical trails where control matters. It has about 150 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which helps on rough, technical trails. Suspension type (Full) fits this kind of terrain.
