The compromises
- Mixed groupset: not every component is Shimano XT.
- Mechanical shifting, at a price where electronic groupsets are common.
- Aluminium frame, at a price where carbon is common.
- 15.65 kg, on the heavy side for a mountain bike; the ranking's reference weight is 14.7 kg.
- 2023 model year.
