Who should buy it
This bike is for riders who want a long-range mountain e-bike and are willing to pay for it. It is also for those who value a lighter frame. If you need a bike for daily commuting, look elsewhere.
- You ride long off-road trails and need a big battery.
- You want a lighter e-MTB that is easier to handle.
- You are willing to spend above the median for premium specs.
If you are on a budget, consider a bike closer to the median price. If you need a throttle or a step-through frame, this bike does not offer them. And if you want a manufacturer warranty, note that it is not published.
