Grand :ON 9

On trails, this rating is about rolling speed and momentum, not suspension feel or handling sharpness. Key drivers include a heavier build, typical trail-width tires, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding. Taken together, those choices reduce wasted energy when you're trying to go fast. When you're pedaling, the tire setup is biased toward rolling speed on firm ground.

Climbing rating: 6.0/10. Within e-mountain bikes, it ranks around the middle. When it gets steep, the gearing feels very easy. Your easiest gear lands around 16.9 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~91% for low-gear climbing. “Gear inches” sounds nerdy, but it’s just a quick way to describe how easy your lowest gear is to turn uphill. Lower usually means easier. Weight is around 24.2 kg — on steep, slow climbs that extra mass becomes more noticeable. 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. Real-world feel depends on setup and size, and some details aren’t always listed, so this is best seen as a well-informed estimate.

On suspension support it’s 6/10, marked “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. 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 - a performance-leaning position that encourages speed. That's driven by handlebar height is roughly 80 mm lower than the saddle (large drop), and how far you'll be stretched forward is about 632 mm (very long). Expect a lean angle around 34 degrees.

So we classify it as Adjustable. Main reasons for the fit flexibility result: Because the bar and stem are separate, changing reach or bar shape is usually straightforward, Less routing complexity makes swaps and adjustments more practical, and The listed seatpost details do not show clear restrictions or extra flexibility signals. Put simply, it describes how practical it is to reconfigure your position later.

This scores 6.6/10 for comfort, so it feels easygoing over rough patches out on the road. That’s the reason it lands as Firm. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 7/10, torso ~34°), which loads the front wheel, which feels great for control but a bit more direct through the bars.

This sits around the normal range for 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 estimate, the price is close to what we’d expect for a comparable build. Among comparable bikes, it sits around the middle on price (cheaper than about 62% of listings). Quick reference: €4.514 listed versus about €4.429 for a comparable build. Put simply: you’re paying roughly what similar bikes tend to cost.

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. Suspension type (Hardtail) fits this kind of terrain.
