MAYOR V5 Aluminum 1x11NX CF

On smoother singletrack, faster-rolling tires and lighter builds show up clearly, and that's what this score reflects. It trends this way because of a fairly average weight, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, typical trail-width tires, and smaller wheels that can lose momentum sooner. On hardpack, the tire setup is biased toward rolling speed on firm ground.

Climb score: 8.0/10. Within Mountain bikes, it lands above average. The low gear should feel friendly on most hills. The easiest gear works out to about 19.8 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~15% for low-gear climbing. We use “gear inches” as a shortcut for climbing gearing. Lower numbers mean you can spin more easily when it gets steep. Weight is around 13.6 kg, which you notice more on longer or slower climbs. This kind of low gear helps you stay smooth on long or steep climbs. 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 1/10, in “Minimal suspension”. It’s about simplicity and direct handling, with limited bump control. No suspension travel here — the frame/fork stay fixed over bumps. Over long rough stretches, the lack of suspension support is the main limiter. Over repeated bumps, the bike won’t stay as composed as setups with more suspension support.

Sporty fit - you'll lean forward more and feel ready to push the pace. It feels this way because bar height comes out ~92 mm below the saddle (large), with about 628 mm of forward reach - a very long stretch. Expect a lean angle around 36 degrees.

In Mountain, That is why we tag it Moderately Adjustable. This front-end is not locked into a one-piece system, which helps adjustability - Routing is relatively straightforward, which helps when you change cockpit parts.

This scores 7.4/10 for comfort, so it feels nicely smooth out on the road. That’s the reason it lands as Balanced. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 8/10, torso ~36°), which puts you in an attack stance, which can feel more intense on long, rough descents.

This doesn’t look like the best deal once you compare it to similar builds. 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 31% of listings). Quick reference: €2.399 listed versus about €2.047 for a comparable build. Overall, it doesn’t look like the best value for the spec.

This bike is built for soft and loose ground where extra tire volume helps. Suspension travel is unknown in this entry, so the surface range uses the clearest available signals. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
