Where it stands
Priced close to what German shops charge for this level of equipment, so it does not clear the margin we require before naming a pick.
Our pick · Under €1,000

The compromises
- 9-speed drivetrain, fewer gears than the 11- and 12-speed groupsets on most mountain bikes.
- Mixed groupset: not every component is Shimano Altus.
- Wheels not identified from the listing, so we scored them level with basic aluminium rather than guess.
- 2024 model year.
