4060 ST GX

For mountain riding, it captures how the bike carries speed when you're pushing the pedals on less technical surfaces. The setup that matters most here is typical trail-width tires, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding. Those ingredients add up to a setup that either preserves speed or bleeds it off.

Uphill performance score: 2.9/10. Within Mountain bikes, this comes out below average. For hill work, the easiest gear is very tall. Your easiest gear lands around 28.1 gear inches. Compared with similar bikes, this low gear is easier than about ~9% of them. Think of “gear inches” like a difficulty score for your easiest gear: lower = more spin-friendly on climbs. Expect more grinding on climbs than easy spinning. 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: 8/10, classed as “High-impact ready”. It’s designed to stay composed through rough sections and repeated hits. Both ends absorb impacts, improving how consistently the tires can follow rough terrain. This is meant for rougher terrain where repeated impacts demand stable wheel tracking.

Sporty fit - you'll lean forward more and feel ready to push the pace. It feels this way because the front end is moderate, with ~51 mm of saddle-to-bar drop, with a extreme stretch forward at ~647 mm. Expect a lean angle around 29 degrees. Estimated spacers: ~14 mm.

In Mountain, A modular front-end gives more freedom to change stem length or bar width; Internal routing is a mild hit to swap-and-go adjustability. That is why we tag it Moderately Adjustable.

This scores 8.3/10 for comfort, so it feels highly forgiving out on the road. Within Enduro, Balanced basically means 'less plush than the softest builds' even though the ride still feels highly forgiving. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 7/10), which puts you in an attack stance, which can feel more intense on long, rough descents.

It’s hard to see the value at this asking price. 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 40% above what similar builds typically cost. Compared with similar bikes, it trends a little expensive (cheaper than about 28% of listings). To anchor it: price €7.299 versus an estimated €5.216 for a similar build. Overall, you can likely find better value elsewhere.

This bike is built for rougher, more technical trails where control matters. It has about 160 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which helps on rough, technical trails. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
