Reactor 275 Alloy Comp

It trades speed for comfort, durability, or practicality. This off-road speed rating describes how quickly the bike rolls under pedal power on smoother ground. Most of the story comes from a heavier build, typical trail-width tires, and a more budget-friendly drivetrain that focuses on value. You'll feel it when you stomp on the pedals: some bikes jump forward, others take longer to build speed.

Climbing rating: 9.3/10. Within Mountain bikes, it lands near the top. It’s set up for smooth spinning on steeper climbs. The easiest gear works out to about 16.9 gear inches. Compared with similar bikes, this low gear is easier than about ~77% of them. Think of “gear inches” like a difficulty score for your easiest gear: lower = more spin-friendly on climbs. Weight is around 14.8 kg, which you notice more on longer or slower climbs. Good for keeping cadence steady on climbs without overcooking it. 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.

For suspension control, it lands at 8/10. Category: “High-impact ready”. It typically supports higher-speed rough sections where impacts stack up quickly. Both ends absorb impacts, improving how consistently the tires can follow rough terrain. Suspension travel is the amount of movement available over bumps — here it’s about 155 mm up front. More travel usually means more room to absorb bigger hits. This is meant for rougher terrain where repeated impacts demand stable wheel tracking.

Sporty fit - more tuck for efficiency, but still manageable for many riders. It feels this way because the cockpit sits 89 mm below the saddle (a large drop), and the cockpit stretches you forward by ~635 mm (very long). Estimated lean is about 35 degrees. Estimated spacers: ~14 mm.

Standard cockpit parts make it simpler to fine-tune your position over time, and Internal routing looks tidy but can make cockpit changes a bit more fiddly. That is why we tag it Moderately Adjustable.

This scores 7.9/10 for comfort, so it feels very smooth out on the road. That’s why it’s labeled Comfortable. The posture is forward, attacking (posture 8/10, torso ~35°), which puts you in an attack stance, which can feel more intense on long, rough descents.

This looks like strong value, even if it’s not the absolute cheapest listing. 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 estimate, the price is close to what we’d expect for a comparable build. Among comparable bikes, it sits around the middle on price (cheaper than about 64% of listings). To anchor it: price €3.744 versus an estimated €3.980 for a similar build. Overall, it looks like a strong buy in its category.

This bike is built for everyday trails with a mix of roots, rocks, and turns. It has about 140 mm of suspension travel (how much it absorbs bumps), which works well for everyday trails. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
