- Mechanical shifting, at a price where electronic groupsets are common.
- Basic aluminium wheels.
- Aluminium frame, at a price where carbon is common.
- 17.31 kg, on the heavy side for a mountain bike; the ranking's reference weight is 14.7 kg.
- No power meter, which many bikes at this price include.
- 2024 model year.
