E-Riot AM CF Advanced 160

On smoother singletrack, faster-rolling tires and lighter builds show up clearly, and that's what this score reflects. In comparison with more aero-focused bikes, this build is shaped by 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.

If your rides include hills, it rates 6.6/10 for climbing. Within e-mountain bikes, it ranks above average. On climbs, the lowest gear feels easy. In numbers, the low gear is roughly 18.4 gear inches. Compared with similar bikes, this low gear is easier than about ~49% of them. We use “gear inches” as a shortcut for climbing gearing. Lower numbers mean you can spin more easily when it gets steep. Being an e-bike helps on climbs because the assist adds steady push when you need it. This kind of low gear helps you stay smooth on long or steep climbs. 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: 8/10, classed as “High-impact ready”. That usually means it’s built for harder hits and rougher trails with steadier wheel tracking. Full suspension helps the bike stay calmer under braking and cornering on rough sections. It’s designed to stay composed when impacts come quickly one after another, especially at higher speeds.

Balanced fit - a middle ground between comfort and speed. Because the front end is very small, with ~27 mm of saddle-to-bar drop, with a extreme stretch forward at ~648 mm. Expect a lean angle around 25 degrees. Estimated spacers: ~14 mm.

Fit flexibility summary: This front-end is not locked into a one-piece system, which helps adjustability, A more service-friendly routing setup makes changes easier - A standard round seatpost size gives you many options for fit and replacements. Overall, it falls into Adjustable. Put simply, it describes how practical it is to reconfigure your position later.

This scores 8.4/10 for comfort, so it feels highly forgiving out on the road.

Overall, it looks like a strong buy in its category.

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.
