The compromises

• 9-speed drivetrain, fewer gears than the 11- and 12-speed groupsets on most mountain bikes.
• Wheels not identified from the listing, so we scored them level with basic aluminium rather than guess.

Your size

What Fahrrad XXL lists, and what it has today

This brand publishes no centimetre equivalence we can verify, so the bike appears only when you pick a letter size.

Where to buy

Other shops list what looks like this bike, but we cannot confirm it is the same build, because the model year or drivetrain is not settled, so we do not compare their prices.

Price so far

• Fahrrad XXL states an RRP of €849 (23% off). That is the shop's claim; we rank on today's price, never on the discount.
