DEFT 8.0 750

This MTB speed measure favors setups that roll efficiently without sacrificing too much traction. Over longer efforts, it's more about stability and usefulness than feeling fast. The setup that matters most here is a heavier build, typical trail-width tires, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding. If you ride in a group, it influences how hard it feels to stay on wheels at higher speeds.

How it climbs: 5.4/10. Within e-mountain bikes, this comes out around the middle. The easiest gear is very spin-friendly on hills. That lowest gear comes out around 18.0 gear inches. On the ‘easier low gear’ scale, it sits around ~70% versus similar bikes. Think of “gear inches” like a difficulty score for your easiest gear: lower = more spin-friendly on climbs. Weight is around 24.9 kg — on steep, slow climbs that extra mass becomes more noticeable. The motor support helps you keep rolling when the slope kicks up. Good for keeping cadence steady on climbs without overcooking it. Different builds can shift the feel a bit, and some manufacturer specs aren’t always publicly listed, so consider this a helpful direction.

For suspension control, it lands at 8/10. Category: “High-impact ready”. It typically supports higher-speed rough sections where impacts stack up quickly. Full suspension helps the bike stay calmer under braking and cornering on rough sections. It prioritizes stability at speed on rough ground. On choppy terrain, it can help the wheels track more consistently. This is meant for rougher terrain where repeated impacts demand stable wheel tracking.

Comfort fit - a relaxed road posture that stays friendly on longer rides. Mostly geometry-based, with a small category-based estimate.

Net result: Adjustable. This bike's adjustability comes down to cockpit, routing, and seat setup: A modular front-end gives more freedom to change stem length or bar width, Cable routing is on the simpler side, which helps adjustability. Also, Having a dropper increases how adaptable the bike feels in different situations.

Ride comfort is 8.2/10 — on a real ride it feels plush. 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 gives a steady, predictable feel without pushing you too far forward.

This looks like a great buy for the spec on paper. 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 20% 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: €5.564 listed versus about €6.976 for a comparable build. Bottom line: you’re getting a lot of bike for the money compared with typical options.

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. The Full setup supports this riding style.
