This MTB speed measure favors setups that roll efficiently without sacrificing too much traction. Even with assistance, heavier builds and high-resistance tires can blunt speed, and this score picks up those differences. Key drivers include typical trail-width tires and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding. When you're pedaling, the tire setup is biased toward rolling speed on firm ground.

Climbing rating: 8.6/10. Within e-mountain bikes, this comes out near the top. When it gets steep, the gearing feels very easy. The easiest gear works out to about 16.9 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~91% 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. The motor support helps you keep rolling when the slope kicks up. This kind of low gear helps you stay smooth on long or steep climbs. Different builds can shift the feel a bit, and some manufacturer specs aren’t always publicly listed, so consider this a helpful direction.

On the suspension scale, it comes in at 9/10 — “Extreme rough-terrain ready”. That’s built for big impacts and very rough terrain, where keeping wheels tracking matters most. Full suspension helps the bike stay calmer under braking and cornering on rough sections. Travel is how far the suspension can move when it hits a bump — here it’s about 170 mm at the rear. As a rule of thumb, more travel gives more headroom for bigger impacts. It’s tuned for steep, rough terrain where keeping the wheels tracking under hard hits is the priority.

Sporty fit - a performance-leaning position that encourages speed. That's driven by the front end is moderate, with ~42 mm of saddle-to-bar drop, with a extreme stretch forward at ~663 mm. Expect a lean angle around 27 degrees.

What drives the fit flexibility here: Separate bar and stem components keep fit changes practical; Cable routing is on the simpler side, which helps adjustability. That is why we tag it Moderately Adjustable. This mainly reflects how easy it is to adjust or swap key fit parts over time.

Comfort comes out to 8.3/10, which usually translates to a plush ride. For Enduro, it’s labeled Balanced. In absolute terms it’s plush; it’s just not as sofa-soft as the most plush setups. 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 looks expensive compared with similar bikes. 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 179% above what similar builds typically cost. In its peer group, it’s one of the pricier listings, beating only about 0% of them. Quick reference: €18.726 listed versus about €6.708 for a comparable build. Put simply: it’s priced more like a premium pick than a value buy.

This bike is made for very rough terrain, big hits, and bike-park riding. It has about 170 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which is useful for big hits and steeper descents. Suspension type (Full) fits this kind of terrain.
