CGR AL e – Flat Bar

This road-focused speed score is primarily about smooth-surface momentum and top-end efficiency. Even on an e-bike, the rating is driven by the bike's setup - tires, weight, and build choices - rather than the motor alone.

On steep roads, it comes in at 3.3/10. Within e-road bikes, this comes out below average. For hill work, the easiest gear is moderate. Your easiest gear lands around 27.0 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~54% 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. The motor support helps you keep rolling when the slope kicks up. A good middle-ground if you want mixed routes that include some hills. 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.

As a gravel bike, scoring 4.5/10 on aero, it’s an all-round aero level so it works well across lots of riding. What that means on the road is: it’s a balanced middle ground: some streamlining, but not an extreme aero setup. The fit looks fairly neutral, so aerodynamics depends more on the overall design and components than on an extreme position. Not every brand publishes the same detail, so this leans on the clearest available specs. In practice, it’s a balanced setup: decent in the wind without demanding big compromises elsewhere.

Comfort fit - comfort-leaning without feeling sluggish. That's driven by the bar sits about 70 mm below the saddle (a moderate drop), and you'll be stretched forward about 549 mm in total (long). Estimated lean is about 34 degrees.

This rating is mainly driven by the parts that affect adjustability: Because the bar and stem are separate, changing reach or bar shape is usually straightforward. Another point: Less routing complexity makes swaps and adjustments more practical. That is why it is in the Adjustable bucket. In practice, it is about how easy fit changes are with normal parts and service work.

Comfort comes out to 5.9/10, which usually translates to a fairly neutral ride. So it’s tagged Balanced overall. The posture is neutral (posture 5/10, torso ~34°), which balances comfort and responsiveness pretty well.

Nothing screams bargain or rip-off here. 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 64% of listings). To anchor it: price €3.369 versus an estimated €3.305 for a similar build. Some manufacturer details aren’t fully published, so use this as a helpful direction rather than a final verdict. Overall, it sits in the expected range for the category.

This setup is built for mixed rides where gravel is a normal part of the route. Tire size details aren’t available here, so the label follows the overall setup and category cues. The wheel setup (700c) supports that direction.
