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.

- Radon SKEEN TRAIL 10.0 at Bike-Discount€2,499EUR 1280 cheaper, GX Eagle instead of XT, decent aluminium rather than unidentified wheels, carbon rather than aluminium frame, 13.3 kg vs 16.5 kg.

The compromises
- Mixed groupset: not every component is Shimano XT.
- Mechanical shifting, at a price where electronic groupsets are common.
- Wheels not identified from the listing, so we scored them level with basic aluminium rather than guess.
- Aluminium frame, at a price where carbon is common.
- 16.5 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.
