Massif Factory Pro Max 27.5

On smoother singletrack, faster-rolling tires and lighter builds show up clearly, and that's what this score reflects. What pushes it in this direction is 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.

Climb score: 8.2/10. Within Mountain bikes, this comes out above average. When it gets steep, the gearing feels very easy. Your easiest gear lands around 17.3 gear inches.
