Grand :ON 7

This off-road speed rating describes how quickly the bike rolls under pedal power on smoother ground. A few practical factors stand out: a heavier build, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, typical trail-width tires, and a more budget-friendly drivetrain that focuses on value. Overall, those details affect how quickly it accelerates and how easily it maintains pace.

Climb score: 5.5/10. Within e-mountain bikes, it sits around the middle. It’s set up for steady spinning on climbs. Your easiest gear lands around 18.2 gear inches. On the ‘easier low gear’ scale, it sits around ~59% versus similar bikes. Gear inches is basically “how easy is the easiest gear”. Lower numbers help you keep your legs spinning on steep bits. With roughly 23.6 kg under you, you’ll feel the weight on longer climbs even with a decent low gear. E-assist can take the sting out of steep ramps, especially at lower speeds. You’ll be able to keep a steady spin even when it gets steep. Specs can vary by size and build, and some manufacturer details aren’t always published, so treat this as a strong guide rather than a guarantee.

Suspension performance: 6/10. It’s grouped into “Confident trail control”. This usually points to stronger bump control and steadier tracking when the surface gets choppy. It’s a common compromise: calmer front wheel, efficient rear end. Expect more grip and stability compared with basic bump-control setups. On roots and rocks, it should keep the bike calmer through repeated impacts. Travel means the suspension’s movement range over a bump. On this bike it’s about 120 mm up front. Generally, more travel helps when hits get bigger or come faster.

Sporty fit - you'll lean forward more and feel ready to push the pace. That's driven by the bar sits about 81 mm below the saddle (a large drop), and you'll be stretched forward about 627 mm in total (very long). Expect a lean angle around 34 degrees.

Overall, it falls into Adjustable. What drives the fit flexibility here: The cockpit is modular (separate stem and handlebar), so it is easier to adjust or swap fit parts. Also, The front-end is easier to work on, supporting fit tweaks over time. Put simply, it describes how practical it is to reconfigure your position later.

Comfort comes out to 6.6/10, which usually translates to a comfortable ride. So it’s tagged Firm overall. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 7/10, torso ~34°), which puts you in an attack stance, which can feel more intense on long, rough descents.

This looks like a great buy for the spec on paper. 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 parts list, it’s roughly 25% cheaper than what similar builds typically cost. Against similar bikes of the same type and age, it’s usually on the cheaper side, beating about 95% of listings. Quick reference: €3.464 listed versus about €4.648 for a comparable build. Put simply: this is strong value for what’s included.

This setup is aimed at fast trail riding on less extreme terrain. It has about 120 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which suits smoother trails. The Hardtail setup supports this riding style.
