COLLOSUS N8E

This MTB speed measure favors setups that roll efficiently without sacrificing too much traction. On an e-bike, the motor helps, but the bike's rolling setup still matters - this rating captures that side of speed. The biggest contributors are a heavier build, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, typical trail-width tires, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding.

Climb score: 5.0/10. Within e-mountain bikes, it ranks around the middle. The low gear should feel friendly on most hills. In numbers, the low gear is roughly 19.3 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~34% for low-gear climbing. Gear inches is basically “how easy is the easiest gear”. Lower numbers help you keep your legs spinning on steep bits. With roughly 25.6 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: 8/10, classed as “High-impact ready”. That usually means it’s built for harder hits and rougher trails with steadier wheel tracking. With suspension in the front and rear, the bike can stay more settled through repeated bumps. This level is meant to keep the bike composed when hits are bigger and frequent. Expect stronger control when braking and cornering on rough terrain. On rough trails, this level aims to keep the bike settled under braking and cornering through repeated hits.

Balanced fit - a versatile position for long rides and faster efforts. You get this posture because there's about 23 mm of drop to the bars (very small), with roughly 649 mm of forward stretch to the bar (extreme). Plan for roughly 24 degrees of lean.

Separate bar and stem components keep fit changes practical. At the same time, Cable routing is on the simpler side, which helps adjustability. Net result: Moderately Adjustable. This mainly reflects how easy it is to adjust or swap key fit parts over time.

Ride comfort is 8.4/10 — on a real ride it feels very smooth. Within Enduro, Balanced 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.

Compared to similar bikes, this is priced very competitively. 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). Based on the spec estimate, it comes in about 18% 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 94% of listings. Quick reference: €5.099 listed versus about €6.242 for a comparable build. Put simply: this is strong value for what’s included.

This setup suits steeper, rockier terrain and harder hits. It has about 160 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which helps on rough, technical trails. Suspension type (Full) fits this kind of terrain.
