Where it stands

Priced below the market rate for its equipment, but another bike in its price range is priced further below it in the sizes where both are in stock. That is the only reason it is not the pick.

• 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.
• 2024 model year.

What bikes.de lists, and what it has today

Centimetre equivalents are the ones the shop prints beside each letter size. This brand publishes no centimetre equivalence we can verify, so the bike appears only when you pick a letter size.
