Mach 6

This MTB speed measure favors setups that roll efficiently without sacrificing too much traction. In practice, it's better suited to relaxed riding than pushing fast splits. Key drivers include typical trail-width tires, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, mid-size wheels that balance agility and momentum, and a high-end drivetrain that tends to feel crisp under load.

On steep roads, it comes in at 8.2/10. Within Mountain bikes, it ranks above average. It’s set up for smooth spinning on steeper climbs. That lowest gear comes out around 17.3 gear inches. On the ‘easier low gear’ scale, it sits around ~64% versus similar bikes. “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. This kind of low gear helps you stay smooth on long or steep climbs. 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 score: 8/10. It sits in the “High-impact ready” bucket. That usually means it’s built for harder hits and rougher trails with steadier wheel tracking. Both ends absorb impacts, improving how consistently the tires can follow rough terrain. This level is meant to keep the bike composed when hits are bigger and frequent. On rough trails, this level aims to keep the bike settled under braking and cornering through repeated hits.

Sporty fit - you'll lean forward more and feel ready to push the pace. That's driven by bar height comes out ~65 mm below the saddle (moderate), with about 608 mm of forward reach - a very long stretch. Expect a lean angle around 32 degrees.

In Mountain, Separate bar and stem components keep fit changes practical, Less routing complexity makes swaps and adjustments more practical - The dropper post improves on-the-fly position changes. So it lands in Moderately Adjustable.

This scores 8.2/10 for comfort, so it feels highly forgiving out on the road. For Enduro, it’s labeled Firm. In absolute terms it’s highly forgiving; it’s just not as sofa-soft as the most plush setups. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 7/10, torso ~32°), which puts you in an attack stance, which can feel more intense on long, rough descents.

This looks expensive compared with similar bikes. 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). On the spec comparison, it sits roughly 45% above what similar builds typically cost. In its peer group, it’s one of the pricier listings, beating only about 23% of them. To anchor it: price €8.899 versus an estimated €6.134 for a similar build. Overall, you can likely find better value elsewhere.

This setup suits steeper, rockier terrain and harder hits. It has about 158 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which helps on rough, technical trails. The Full setup supports this riding style.
