FURTADO GX AXS / Carbon C

In mountain-bike land, this is a pedaling-speed measure - how fast it rolls when you're working for it. In comparison with more aero-focused bikes, this build is shaped by a fairly average weight, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, typical trail-width tires, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding.

Uphill performance score: 9.1/10. Within Mountain bikes, it ranks near the top. The low gear should feel friendly on most hills. The easiest gear works out to about 18.2 gear inches. In its peer group, it lands around the easier ~36% for low-gear climbing. “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. With about 13.9 kg to haul uphill, pacing matters more on longer grades. You’ll be able to keep a steady spin even when it gets steep. 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.

For suspension control, it lands at 7/10. Category: “High-impact ready”. It typically supports higher-speed rough sections where impacts stack up quickly. Full suspension means both ends can absorb impacts, helping the wheels track rough ground more consistently. Expect stronger control when braking and cornering on rough terrain. It’s designed to stay composed when impacts come quickly one after another, especially at higher speeds.

Balanced fit - a middle ground between comfort and speed. That's driven by the bar sits about 0 mm below the saddle (a very small drop), and you'll be stretched forward about 602 mm in total (very long). Estimated lean is about 20 degrees.

Net result: Adjustable. Fit adjustability is shaped by a few key choices: This front-end is not locked into a one-piece system, which helps adjustability, The front-end is easier to work on, supporting fit tweaks over time. Plus, Having a dropper increases how adaptable the bike feels in different situations. Put simply, it describes how practical it is to reconfigure your position later.

Comfort comes out to 8.4/10, which usually translates to a plush ride. That’s why it’s labeled Ultra Smooth. It’s running about 127 mm tires on 29" wheels, and the high-volume tires add a lot of damping and grip on roots, rocks, braking bumps, and repeated hits. The posture is neutral (posture 6/10), which keeps it balanced — not overly aggressive, not overly relaxed.

It’s hard to see the value at this asking price. 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). On the spec comparison, it sits roughly 47% above what similar builds typically cost. In its peer group, it’s one of the pricier listings, beating only about 23% of them. Quick reference: €6.899 listed versus about €4.697 for a comparable build. Bottom line: the price looks high for what’s included.

This bike is built for everyday trails with a mix of roots, rocks, and turns. It has about 130 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which works well for everyday trails. The Full setup supports this riding style.
