The compromises
- 8-speed drivetrain, fewer gears than the 11- and 12-speed groupsets on most mountain bikes.
- Mixed groupset: not every component is Shimano Tourney.
- Wheels not identified from the listing, so we scored them level with basic aluminium rather than guess.
- 18 kg, on the heavy side for a mountain bike; the ranking's reference weight is 14.4 kg.
