About the build
The wheels are a clear highlight at Elite-tier. However, the drivetrain lags behind at Balanced-tier. Full SRAM across the drivetrain for a clean, uniform setup. Geometry figures are missing from the manufacturer, so there's no fit or handling assessment here.
Worth knowing
- 2,4" tyres, tubeless-ready
