P.1

In MTB terms, the score is mostly about momentum on flats and climbs, rather than jump or drop capability. Relative to performance-oriented builds, this build is shaped by a very light build, a lighter-feeling build that helps when you're pedaling for speed, relatively narrow MTB tires that roll quickly, and small wheels meant for compact bikes.

If your rides include hills, it rates 2.0/10 for climbing. Within Mountain bikes, this comes out below average. The lowest gear is very tall when the road tilts up. The easiest gear works out to about 62.3 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. At about 9.4 kg, it’s in a normal range, so gearing matters more than weight swings here. Expect more grinding on climbs than easy spinning. 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.

Suspension capability comes out at 1/10. Bucket: “Minimal suspension”. In practice, it’s at its best on steady, predictable surfaces. With no suspension movement, bump absorption is minimal by design. When the surface breaks up, you’ll get more bump transmission and less wheel tracking than with higher scores.

Balanced fit - a middle ground between comfort and speed. This is mainly because bar height comes out ~131 mm below the saddle (very large), with about 480 mm of forward reach - a medium stretch. You'll likely be near 48 degrees of lean.

What affects adjustability on this bike: A modular front-end gives more freedom to change stem length or bar width, Internal cable routing can slow down fit-related part changes - The dropper adds a real-world adjustability benefit while riding. That is why we tag it Moderately Adjustable.

Comfort comes out to 5.1/10, which usually translates to a balanced ride. That’s the reason it lands as Race-Stiff. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 7/10, torso ~48°), which loads the front wheel, which feels great for control but a bit more direct through the bars.

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 62% cheaper than what similar builds typically cost. Against similar bikes of the same type and age, it’s usually on the cheaper side, beating about 94% of listings. To anchor it: price €650 versus an estimated €1.718 for a similar build. A few manufacturer details aren’t clearly published, so treat this as a best-effort estimate, not a precise verdict. Bottom line: you’re getting a lot of bike for the money compared with typical options.

This bike is made for very rough terrain, big hits, and bike-park riding. Suspension travel is unknown in this entry, so the surface range uses the clearest available signals. The Rigid setup supports this riding style.
