What the numbers mean on the trail

Computed from this bike's geometry, spec and build kit — reach, wheelbase, chainstay, head and seat angles, travel, motor, weight and the fork/tyre/brake spec — and worked out per size, because a fixed chainstay can make an S and an XL feel very different.

Size
Descending
98

Slack 63° head angle, 170mm travel and a long 1256mm wheelbase — composed in the chunk, confident when it gets steep, and stable through fast corners.

Playfulness
39

More planted than poppy — better on steep terrain than tight, fiddly singletrack.

Size balance
96

Rear-long with a planted front in S2 (FC:RC 1.80) — easy to weight the front and quick to turn, though it can feel light at the back at real speed.

Technical climbing
94

Avinox M2S and a steep 76.75° seat angle keep the weight planted over the front — a proper winch. 1300W of peak power and 150Nm of torque — among the most powerful e-bike motors made.

Best suited toFast, steep, rough tracks — and riders who want maximum composure.

Rewards commitment; it should feel calmer as the speed rises.

Watch out forNot a flickable, playful bike at 23.43kg — built to plough, not pop.

Brilliant on fast, rough, steep terrain; less fun on tight, mellow trails.
