Trid

It prioritizes confidence and everyday riding over outright pace. For MTB speed, tire choice and rolling resistance matter a lot, and that's baked into the score. It ends up here thanks to a light setup, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, relatively narrow MTB tires that roll quickly, and smaller wheels that can lose momentum sooner.

On steep roads, it comes in at 1.3/10. Within Mountain bikes, it sits near the bottom. For hill work, the easiest gear is very tall. That lowest gear comes out around 59.4 gear inches. Most comparable bikes have an easier low gear; this is easier than only about ~2% of them. “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. Weight is around 11.9 kg, which you notice more on longer or slower climbs. On proper hills, you’ll feel it — this setup isn’t built to make climbing effortless. 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.

On the suspension scale, it comes in at 3/10 — “Basic bump control”. It’s designed for light bump absorption and steadier tracking on uneven patches. Front suspension handles most impacts, while the rear wheel tracks the ground directly. It should improve stability on small bumps, but it isn’t meant for big hits or very rough terrain.

Balanced fit - a versatile position for long rides and faster efforts. Because the front end is large, with ~96 mm of saddle-to-bar drop, with a very long stretch forward at ~585 mm. Expect a lean angle around 38 degrees.

In Mountain, Separate bar and stem components keep fit changes practical, Less routing complexity makes swaps and adjustments more practical. Plus, Seatpost details do not strongly point to a very locked-in or very flexible system. So we classify it as Adjustable. This mainly reflects how easy it is to adjust or swap key fit parts over time.

Ride comfort is 6.0/10 — on a real ride it feels fairly neutral. That’s the reason it lands as Balanced. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 7/10, torso ~38°), which puts you in an attack stance, which can feel more intense on long, rough descents.

Compared to similar bikes, this is priced very competitively. 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). Based on the parts list, it’s roughly 35% cheaper than what similar builds typically cost. Among comparable bikes, it sits around the middle on price (cheaper than about 57% of listings). Quick reference: €1.199 listed versus about €1.838 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. Suspension travel details aren’t available here, so the label follows the category and the rest of the setup. Suspension type (Hardtail) fits this kind of terrain.
