LYNX SLS 9.7
BH
Crosscountry
LYNX SLS 9.7 is a cross-country mountain bike (2024), from BH, part of the Lynx family. It suits riders looking for a balanced off-road setup, leaning toward a balanced riding position, while being best for smoother trails and efficient rolling. Its strongest points in the MatchBikes metrics are strong climbing friendliness for sustained uphill riding, a comfort-leaning ride feel over longer rides, and balanced, versatile speed for everyday riding. That said, compared with more specialized alternatives, the compromise is a value score that depends more on priorities than pure price efficiency.
