LEVEL XR

On an MTB, the speed score centers on rolling efficiency when you're pedaling, especially on easier terrain. Versus the most speed-focused options, this build is shaped by a heavier build, relatively narrow MTB tires that roll quickly, and a high-end drivetrain that tends to feel crisp under load. On hardpack, the tire setup is biased toward rolling speed on firm ground.

How it climbs: 5.3/10. Within e-mountain bikes, this comes out around the middle. On climbs, the lowest gear feels very easy. The easiest gear works out to about 18.0 gear inches. On the ‘easier low gear’ scale, it sits around ~70% versus similar bikes. Gear inches is basically “how easy is the easiest gear”. Lower numbers help you keep your legs spinning on steep bits. At about 25.9 kg, it’s a heavy build; the low gear matters even more when the slope kicks up. The motor support helps you keep rolling when the slope kicks up. Good for keeping cadence steady on climbs without overcooking it. Real-world feel depends on setup and size, and some details aren’t always listed, so this is best seen as a well-informed estimate.

Suspension setup comes out at 9/10 — “Extreme rough-terrain ready”. That’s built for big impacts and very rough terrain, where keeping wheels tracking matters most. Both ends absorb impacts, improving how consistently the tires can follow rough terrain. Rough trails should feel more controlled, especially when hits stack up. It’s tuned for steep, rough terrain where keeping the wheels tracking under hard hits is the priority.

Balanced fit - a middle ground between comfort and speed. That's driven by bars are around 28 mm lower than the saddle, which is a very small drop, and the forward stretch measures around 649 mm (extreme). Plan for roughly 25 degrees of lean. Front-end spacers are estimated around 14 mm.

Net result: Race-Fit Specific. The front-end is built as a single system, which reduces easy fit part swaps, Because cables are routed internally, adjustments may take more work. Plus, The dropper adds a real-world adjustability benefit while riding. This mainly reflects how easy it is to adjust or swap key fit parts over time.

This scores 8.5/10 for comfort, so it feels very smooth out on the road. That’s why it’s labeled Comfortable. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 7/10), which puts you in an attack stance, which can feel more intense on long, rough descents.

This looks like a high asking price for the build level. 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). On the spec comparison, it sits roughly 48% above what similar builds typically cost. In its peer group, it’s one of the pricier listings, beating only about 14% of them. Quick reference: €9.986 listed versus about €6.726 for a comparable build. Overall, you can likely find better value elsewhere.

This setup suits steeper, rockier terrain and harder hits. It has about 170 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which helps on rough, technical trails. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
