NATIVE 03

In MTB terms, the score is mostly about momentum on flats and climbs, rather than jump or drop capability. Over longer efforts, it's more about stability and usefulness than feeling fast. The main reasons are typical trail-width tires and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding. You'll feel it when you stomp on the pedals: some bikes jump forward, others take longer to build speed.

On steep roads, it comes in at 3.7/10. Within e-mountain bikes, it ranks below average. This setup leans heavily toward ‘push’ rather than ‘spin’ on climbs. In numbers, the low gear is roughly 26.2 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~9% 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. Being an e-bike helps on climbs because the assist adds steady push when you need it. This is happiest on flatter terrain; steep stuff will feel demanding. Different builds can shift the feel a bit, and some manufacturer specs aren’t always publicly listed, so consider this a helpful direction.

Overall suspension support: 7/10 (“High-impact ready”). This level is aimed at repeated impacts and rougher terrain, keeping the bike more settled at speed. Full suspension means both ends can absorb impacts, helping the wheels track rough ground more consistently. It’s designed to stay composed when impacts come quickly one after another, especially at higher speeds.

Balanced fit - a versatile position for long rides and faster efforts. This is mainly because bars are around 33 mm lower than the saddle, which is a very small drop, and the forward stretch measures around 624 mm (very long). Estimated lean is about 26 degrees.

In E-bikeMountain / Enduro, That is why we tag it Moderately Adjustable. This rating is mainly driven by the parts that affect adjustability: This front-end is not locked into a one-piece system, which helps adjustability - The front-end is easier to work on, supporting fit tweaks over time.

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 forward, attacking (posture 7/10), which loads the front wheel, which feels great for control but a bit more direct through the bars.

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. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
