E-Grifn – Shimano Ultegra DI2 2x12sp

In a road context, the speed rating is about holding pace with less effort once you're up to speed. Key drivers include a default tire-width baseline, aerodynamics that likely help it hold speed once you're rolling, a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding, and a more tucked riding position that cuts wind resistance.

Uphill performance score: 1.8/10. Within e-road bikes, it sits near the bottom. For hill work, the easiest gear is very tall. Your easiest gear lands around 32.4 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~12% 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. This is happiest on flatter terrain; steep stuff will feel demanding. Build kits can differ by size and spec level, and not every detail is published by every brand, so use this as a practical guideline.

From a gravel perspective, with more integrated details, scoring 5.0/10 on aero, it’s built to be well-rounded in the wind and it doesn’t force a specialist aero posture. The short version is: it’s a balanced middle ground: some streamlining, but not an extreme aero setup. The gravel category also hints at the intent behind the design. A tidier cockpit and cable routing can help a little once you’re riding quickly. Different brands share different amounts of detail, so this uses the most consistent cues that are available. That typically means solid everyday speed without forcing an aggressive position or race-only parts.

Balanced fit - a versatile position for long rides and faster efforts. It feels this way because there's about 70 mm of drop to the bars (moderate), with roughly 565 mm of forward stretch to the bar (long). Plan for roughly 33 degrees of lean. Front-end spacers are estimated around 18 mm.

What drives the fit flexibility here: Because the cockpit is integrated, swapping sizes or positions is less straightforward - A more service-friendly routing setup makes changes easier. Net result: Moderately Adjustable. This mainly reflects how easy it is to adjust or swap key fit parts over time.

Ride comfort is 5.9/10 — on a real ride it feels fairly neutral. That’s the reason it lands as Balanced. The posture is neutral (posture 6/10, torso ~33°), which balances comfort and responsiveness pretty well.

This looks like a high asking price for the build level. The value score is 1–10. Higher means better value for money; lower means the price is high for what you get. Uses MSRP as a baseline; real-world prices can be lower (discounts can change the value). On the spec comparison, it sits roughly 30% above what similar builds typically cost. In its peer group, it’s one of the pricier listings, beating only about 22% of them. To anchor it: price €8.400 versus an estimated €6.484 for a similar build. Some manufacturer details aren’t fully published, so use this as a helpful direction rather than a final verdict. Bottom line: the price looks high for what’s included.

This bike is comfortable on gravel roads and unpaved back roads, and it still rides well on tarmac. Tire size details aren’t available here, so the label follows the overall setup and category cues. The wheel setup (700c) supports that direction.
