Samedi 29 Game 3

For MTB speed, tire choice and rolling resistance matter a lot, and that's baked into the score. As a result, it's tuned for reliability and control rather than maximum speed. It ends up here thanks to a heavier build, 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.

If your rides include hills, it rates 5.7/10 for climbing. Within e-mountain bikes, this comes out around the middle. When it gets steep, the gearing feels very easy. That lowest gear comes out around 16.9 gear inches. Compared with similar bikes, this low gear is easier than about ~91% of them. Think of “gear inches” like a difficulty score for your easiest gear: lower = more spin-friendly on climbs. With roughly 25.4 kg under you, you’ll feel the weight on longer climbs even with a decent low gear. Being an e-bike helps on climbs because the assist adds steady push when you need it. You’ll be able to keep a steady spin even when it gets steep. 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 performance: 8/10. It’s grouped into “High-impact ready”. It typically supports higher-speed rough sections where impacts stack up quickly. Both ends absorb impacts, improving how consistently the tires can follow rough terrain. It’s designed to stay composed when impacts come quickly one after another, especially at higher speeds.

Comfort fit - comfort-leaning without feeling sluggish. Based on full geometry data.

Fit adjustability is shaped by a few key choices: The cockpit is modular (separate stem and handlebar), so it is easier to adjust or swap fit parts, Cable routing is on the simpler side, which helps adjustability. At the same time, A dropper makes it easier to shift between climbing and descending positions. Net result: Adjustable. In practice, it is about how easy fit changes are with normal parts and service work.

This scores 8.2/10 for comfort, so it feels plush out on the road. Within Enduro, Firm basically means 'less plush than the softest builds' even though the ride still feels plush. The posture is neutral (posture 5/10), which keeps it balanced — not overly aggressive, not overly relaxed.

For what you get, the price looks very hard to beat. 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). Based on the spec estimate, it comes in about 13% 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 88% of listings. To anchor it: price €5.249 versus an estimated €6.052 for a similar build. Put simply: this is strong value for what’s included.

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.
