Amplitude AL Team – silver

It prioritizes confidence and everyday riding over outright pace. On an MTB, the speed score centers on rolling efficiency when you're pedaling, especially on easier terrain. The strongest influences are typical trail-width tires and a basic drivetrain spec that prioritizes practicality over outright performance. On smoother terrain, the tire setup is biased toward rolling speed on firm ground.

Climbing rating: 1.0/10. Within Mountain bikes, it ranks near the bottom. This setup leans heavily toward ‘push’ rather than ‘spin’ on climbs. The easiest gear works out to about 72.0 gear inches. This sits at the tough end — easier than only about ~1% of similar bikes. We use “gear inches” as a shortcut for climbing gearing. Lower numbers mean you can spin more easily when it gets steep. This is happiest on flatter terrain; steep stuff will feel demanding. Real-world feel depends on setup and size, and some details aren’t always listed, so this is best seen as a well-informed estimate.

Suspension: 5/10, classed as “Confident trail control”. That typically means noticeably better bump absorption and more consistent tracking on rougher sections. It’s a hardtail setup: the fork manages impacts up front, while the rear stays rigid and direct. Expect steadier tracking on rougher sections without feeling like a long-travel downhill setup.

Comfort fit - comfort-leaning without feeling sluggish. This is mainly because handlebar height is roughly 14 mm lower than the saddle (very small drop), and how far you'll be stretched forward is about 569 mm (long). Expect a lean angle around 24 degrees. Estimated spacers: ~13 mm.

In Mountain, What affects adjustability on this bike: Standard cockpit parts make it simpler to fine-tune your position over time, Routing is relatively straightforward, which helps when you change cockpit parts - Seatpost details do not strongly point to a very locked-in or very flexible system. That is why it is in the Adjustable bucket. Put simply, it describes how practical it is to reconfigure your position later.

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 more upright (posture 4/10), which takes some pressure off your hands on rough sections.

Compared to similar bikes, this is priced very competitively. 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 43% cheaper than what similar builds typically cost. Among comparable bikes, it sits around the middle on price (cheaper than about 58% of listings). To anchor it: price €1.156 versus an estimated €2.037 for a similar build. A few manufacturer details aren’t clearly published, so treat this as a best-effort estimate, not a precise verdict. Overall, it looks like a great-value pick in its category.

This bike is made for very rough terrain, big hits, and bike-park riding. It has about 100 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which is useful for big hits and steeper descents. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
