Rampage 2.2

For mountain riding, it captures how the bike carries speed when you're pushing the pedals on less technical surfaces. The score is largely shaped by typical trail-width tires, small wheels meant for compact bikes, and a basic drivetrain spec that prioritizes practicality over outright performance. On hardpack, the tire setup is biased toward rolling speed on firm ground.

Uphill performance score: 9.4/10. Within Mountain bikes, it lands near the top. It’s set up for smooth spinning on steeper climbs. The easiest gear works out to about 15.9 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~94% 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. 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.

Suspension rating is 4/10 — “Basic bump control”. It typically helps with chatter and small hits without being built for big impacts. It’s a common compromise: calmer front wheel, efficient rear end. It’s most noticeable on washboard and small trail chatter. On roots and rocks, it should keep the bike calmer through repeated impacts. It should improve stability on small bumps, but it isn’t meant for big hits or very rough terrain.

Sporty fit - more tuck for efficiency, but still manageable for many riders. You get this posture because the cockpit sits 127 mm below the saddle (a very large drop), and the cockpit stretches you forward by ~501 mm (medium). Estimated lean is about 49 degrees.

In Mountain / Dirt Jump, Here is the simple reasoning behind the fit flexibility rating: The cockpit is modular (separate stem and handlebar), so it is easier to adjust or swap fit parts; A more service-friendly routing setup makes changes easier. So it lands in Moderately Adjustable. This mainly reflects how easy it is to adjust or swap key fit parts over time.

Comfort comes out to 5.0/10, which usually translates to a fairly neutral ride. That’s why it’s labeled Race-Stiff. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 7/10, torso ~49°), which puts you in an attack stance, which can feel more intense on long, rough descents.

This looks like a great buy for the spec on paper. 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). Based on the parts list, it’s roughly 53% cheaper than what similar builds typically cost. In its peer group, it tends to be better-priced than many, beating about 82% of listings. Quick reference: €799 listed versus about €1.718 for a comparable build. Not every spec detail is consistently published, so think of this as a strong hint rather than the last word. Bottom line: you’re getting a lot of bike for the money compared with typical options.

This setup is built to handle steep lines and heavy impacts. It has about 80 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which is useful for big hits and steeper descents. Suspension type (Hardtail) fits this kind of terrain.
