The compromises

• 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.
• 16.9 kg, on the heavy side for a mountain bike; the ranking's reference weight is 14.4 kg.
• No power meter, which many bikes at this price include.
