Fourstroke 01 ONE

For mountain riding, it captures how the bike carries speed when you're pushing the pedals on less technical surfaces. The biggest contributors are typical trail-width tires, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, and a high-end drivetrain that tends to feel crisp under load. When you're pedaling, the tire setup is biased toward rolling speed on firm ground.

Uphill performance score: 5.9/10. Within Mountain bikes, it sits around the middle. The low gear should feel friendly on most hills. That lowest gear comes out around 19.3 gear inches. On the ‘easier low gear’ scale, it sits around ~18% versus similar bikes. Gear inches is basically “how easy is the easiest gear”. Lower numbers help you keep your legs spinning on steep bits. It’s set up so climbs feel controlled rather than a grind. 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.

Overall suspension support: 5/10 (“Confident trail control”). This usually points to stronger bump control and steadier tracking when the surface gets choppy. With suspension in the front and rear, the bike can stay more settled through repeated bumps. Rough trails should feel more controlled, especially when hits stack up. Not every manufacturer lists complete suspension numbers, so the explanation relies on the suspension layout and what’s normal for this category.

Sporty fit - more tuck for efficiency, but still manageable for many riders. That's driven by bar height comes out ~94 mm below the saddle (large), with about 636 mm of forward reach - a very long stretch. Estimated lean is about 36 degrees.

In Mountain / Crosscountry, Overall, it is Moderately Adjustable. Why this fit flexibility rating: Standard cockpit parts make it simpler to fine-tune your position over time, Internal cable routing can slow down fit-related part changes. At the same time, The dropper post improves on-the-fly position changes. This mainly reflects how easy it is to adjust or swap key fit parts over time.

Ride comfort is 7.3/10 — on a real ride it feels comfortable. So it’s tagged Comfortable overall. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 8/10, torso ~36°), which puts you in an attack stance, which can feel more intense on long, rough descents.

This looks expensive compared with similar bikes. 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 354% above what similar builds typically cost. In its peer group, it’s one of the pricier listings, beating only about 0% of them. To anchor it: price €12.600 versus an estimated €2.776 for a similar build. Put simply: it’s priced more like a premium pick than a value buy.

This setup is aimed at fast trail riding on less extreme terrain. It has about 100 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which suits smoother trails. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
