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
- Cube Reaction C:62 ONE 2023 at Multicycle€800EUR 200 more expensive, SX Eagle instead of Tourney, carbon rather than aluminium frame, 11.7 kg vs 15 kg.
What you get

- Drivetrain
- Shimano Tourney, 8-speed (mixed build)
- Wheels
- not stated by the shop: scored level with basic aluminium

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.
- 15 kg, on the heavy side for a mountain bike; the ranking's reference weight is 14.4 kg.
