It's more about stability and usefulness than feeling fast. In mountain-bike land, this is a pedaling-speed measure - how fast it rolls when you're working for it. It trends this way because of typical trail-width tires, wheel momentum that helps it carry speed between pedal strokes, mid-size wheels that balance agility and momentum, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding.

If your rides include hills, it rates 7.8/10 for climbing. Within Mountain bikes, it ranks above average. The easiest gear is very spin-friendly on hills. Your easiest gear lands around 17.6 gear inches. Compared with similar bikes, this low gear is easier than about ~57% of them. Think of “gear inches” like a difficulty score for your easiest gear: lower = more spin-friendly on climbs. 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.

Suspension handling is rated 7/10. It matches “High-impact ready”. This level is aimed at repeated impacts and rougher terrain, keeping the bike more settled at speed. Full suspension helps the bike stay calmer under braking and cornering on rough sections. On rough trails, this level aims to keep the bike settled under braking and cornering through repeated hits.

Comfort fit - a relaxed road posture that stays friendly on longer rides. Based on full geometry data.

Here is the simple reasoning behind the fit flexibility rating: A modular front-end gives more freedom to change stem length or bar width, Hidden cables usually add a little friction when you swap bars or stems. Also, A 2-bolt clamp makes precise saddle setup easier. That is why we tag it Moderately Adjustable. This mainly reflects how easy it is to adjust or swap key fit parts over time.

This scores 7.6/10 for comfort, so it feels nicely smooth out on the road. Within Trail, Firm basically means 'less plush than the softest builds' even though the ride still feels nicely smooth. The posture is neutral (posture 5/10), which keeps it balanced — not overly aggressive, not overly relaxed.

You may be paying a premium here. 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 31% above what similar builds typically cost. Compared with similar bikes, it trends a little expensive (cheaper than about 35% of listings). To anchor it: price €5.242 versus an estimated €4.013 for a similar build. Put simply: it’s a bit pricey for what you get.

This setup suits typical singletrack and varied natural terrain. 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.
