ECA 2

This off-road speed rating describes how quickly the bike rolls under pedal power on smoother ground. Against lighter, narrower-tire builds, this build is shaped by typical trail-width tires and a more budget-friendly drivetrain that focuses on value. On smoother terrain, the tire setup is biased toward rolling speed on firm ground.

Uphill performance score: 4.2/10. Within e-mountain bikes, this comes out around the middle. This setup leans heavily toward ‘push’ rather than ‘spin’ on climbs. That lowest gear comes out around 23.9 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~12% for low-gear climbing. We use “gear inches” as a shortcut for climbing gearing. Lower numbers mean you can spin more easily when it gets steep. E-assist can take the sting out of steep ramps, especially at lower speeds. Expect more grinding on climbs than easy spinning. Build kits can differ by size and spec level, and not every detail is published by every brand, so use this as a practical guideline.

Suspension setup comes out at 8/10 — “High-impact ready”. That usually means it’s built for harder hits and rougher trails with steadier wheel tracking. Full suspension means both ends can absorb impacts, helping the wheels track rough ground more consistently. Some brands don’t publish full suspension measurements, so this summary follows the suspension layout and typical builds for this style. On rough trails, this level aims to keep the bike settled under braking and cornering through repeated hits.

Balanced fit - a middle ground between comfort and speed. That's driven by you get a very small drop: roughly 24 mm from saddle to bar, plus about 629 mm of stretch forward (very long). You'll likely be near 25 degrees of lean.

That is why it is in the Adjustable bucket. Why this fit flexibility rating: The cockpit is modular (separate stem and handlebar), so it is easier to adjust or swap fit parts, Routing is relatively straightforward, which helps when you change cockpit parts. Also, Standard sizing usually means more aftermarket options for dialing in fit.

This scores 8.4/10 for comfort, so it feels very smooth out on the road. For Enduro, it’s labeled Balanced. In absolute terms it’s very smooth; it’s just not as sofa-soft as the most plush setups. It’s running about 60 mm tires on 29" wheels, and the high-volume tires add a lot of damping and grip on roots, rocks, braking bumps, and repeated hits. The posture is neutral (posture 6/10), which keeps it balanced — not overly aggressive, not overly relaxed.

This looks like a great buy for the spec on paper. 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 17% under the typical level for similar builds. Against similar bikes of the same type and age, it’s usually on the cheaper side, beating about 91% of listings. Quick reference: €5.193 listed versus about €6.246 for a comparable build. Bottom line: you’re getting a lot of bike for the money compared with typical options.

This bike is built for rougher, more technical trails where control matters. It has about 160 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which helps on rough, technical trails. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
