TRA 4

On an MTB, the speed score centers on rolling efficiency when you're pedaling, especially on easier terrain. 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 typical trail-width tires and a capable drivetrain that supports steady speed. On smoother terrain, the tire setup is biased toward rolling speed on firm ground.

How it climbs: 4.8/10. Within e-mountain bikes, it sits around the middle. For hill work, the easiest gear is very tall. That lowest gear comes out around 22.3 gear inches. On the ‘easier low gear’ scale, it sits around ~14% versus similar bikes. “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. E-assist can take the sting out of steep ramps, especially at lower speeds. On proper hills, you’ll feel it — this setup isn’t built to make climbing effortless. 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.

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. You get suspension movement at the front, while the rear stays firm and direct. Expect steadier tracking on rougher sections without feeling like a long-travel downhill setup.

Balanced fit - a middle ground between comfort and speed. Because bars are around 25 mm lower than the saddle, which is a very small drop, and the forward stretch measures around 624 mm (very long). You'll likely be near 25 degrees of lean.

Fit adjustability is shaped by a few key choices: Because the bar and stem are separate, changing reach or bar shape is usually straightforward, Less routing complexity makes swaps and adjustments more practical. Plus, Standard sizing usually means more aftermarket options for dialing in fit. Net result: Adjustable. In practice, it is about how easy fit changes are with normal parts and service work.

Comfort comes out to 6.2/10, which usually translates to a easygoing over rough patches ride. That’s why it’s labeled Race-Stiff. It’s running about 58 mm tires on 27.5" wheels, and the high-volume tires add a lot of damping and grip on roots, rocks, braking bumps, and repeated hits. The posture is neutral (posture 6/10), which keeps it balanced — not overly aggressive, not overly relaxed.

This is the kind of deal people usually notice quickly. 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 26% 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. To anchor it: price €3.314 versus an estimated €4.450 for a similar build. Overall, it looks like a great-value pick in its category.

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. It’s listed as Trail, but the parts point more toward Flow Trails.
