Trance X Advanced, E+ Elite 3

This off-road speed score leans toward efficient rolling, not downhill stability or comfort. When you push the pace, it's better suited to relaxed riding than pushing fast splits. The biggest contributors are typical trail-width tires, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, and a more budget-friendly drivetrain that focuses on value.

How it climbs: 5.3/10. Within e-mountain bikes, it lands around the middle. It has an easy low gear for steady climbing. That lowest gear comes out around 20.5 gear inches. On the ‘easier low gear’ scale, it sits around ~21% versus similar bikes. We use “gear inches” as a shortcut for climbing gearing. Lower numbers mean you can spin more easily when it gets steep. 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.

Overall suspension support: 7/10 (“High-impact ready”). This level is aimed at repeated impacts and rougher terrain, keeping the bike more settled at speed. Suspension at both ends helps keep wheel tracking steadier when the surface gets rough. This is meant for rougher terrain where repeated impacts demand stable wheel tracking.

Sporty fit - more tuck for efficiency, but still manageable for many riders. You get this posture because there's about 56 mm of drop to the bars (moderate), with roughly 641 mm of forward stretch to the bar (extreme). You'll likely be near 30 degrees of lean.

That is why we tag it Moderately Adjustable. A modular front-end gives more freedom to change stem length or bar width, A more service-friendly routing setup makes changes easier, From the seatpost text provided, there are no strong constraints or bonuses. Also, Having a dropper increases how adaptable the bike feels in different situations.

This scores 8.1/10 for comfort, so it feels very smooth out on the road. That’s why it’s labeled Comfortable. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 7/10, torso ~30°), which puts you in an attack stance, which can feel more intense on long, rough descents.

This feels like you’re paying extra for the same kind of bike. 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’s about 24% above the typical level for similar builds. Compared with similar bikes, it trends a little expensive (cheaper than about 30% of listings). Quick reference: €6.000 listed versus about €4.827 for a comparable build. Overall, it doesn’t look like the best value for the spec.

This bike is built for everyday trails with a mix of roots, rocks, and turns. It has about 140 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which works well for everyday trails. The Full setup supports this riding style.
