It prioritizes confidence and everyday riding over outright pace. On smoother singletrack, faster-rolling tires and lighter builds show up clearly, and that's what this score reflects. Most of the story comes from typical trail-width tires, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, mid-size wheels that balance agility and momentum, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding.

Climb score: 1.2/10. Within Mountain bikes, it ranks near the bottom. This setup leans heavily toward ‘push’ rather than ‘spin’ on climbs. In numbers, the low gear is roughly 39.6 gear inches. This sits at the tough end — easier than only about ~2% of similar bikes. Think of “gear inches” like a difficulty score for your easiest gear: lower = more spin-friendly on climbs. 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 sits at 10/10, in “Extreme rough-terrain ready”. It’s intended for the roughest use cases, where suspension control is critical. Both ends absorb impacts, improving how consistently the tires can follow rough terrain. On choppy terrain, it can help the wheels track more consistently. This level is meant for the most demanding roughness, staying stable through repeated big impacts.

Balanced fit - a versatile position for long rides and faster efforts. Because there's about 28 mm of drop to the bars (very small), with roughly 633 mm of forward stretch to the bar (very long). Expect a lean angle around 26 degrees.

Why this fit flexibility rating: The cockpit is modular (separate stem and handlebar), so it is easier to adjust or swap fit parts, Cable routing is on the simpler side, which helps adjustability; The listed seatpost details do not show clear restrictions or extra flexibility signals. Net result: Moderately Adjustable. Put simply, it describes how practical it is to reconfigure your position later.

This scores 8.5/10 for comfort, so it feels plush out on the road. It’s tagged Firm for Downhill — it feels plush overall, but it’s on the firmer end compared with the plushest Downhill builds. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 7/10), which puts you in an attack stance, which can feel more intense on long, rough descents.

This feels like you’re paying extra for the same kind of bike. 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 spec estimate, it’s about 17% above the typical level for similar builds. Compared with similar bikes, it trends a little expensive (cheaper than about 43% of listings). To anchor it: price €5.099 versus an estimated €4.370 for a similar build. Put simply: it’s a bit pricey for what you get.

This bike is made for very rough terrain, big hits, and bike-park riding. It has about 190 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which is useful for big hits and steeper descents. Suspension type (Full) fits this kind of terrain.
