Those who are out on a bike to explore new horizons need a reliable partner – which is why we equipped the Reaction Hybrid SLX 800 with a 12-speed XT drivetrain and matching hydraulic XT disc brakes from Shimano. Both work super reliably and are easy to use, so that the focus remains on what’s important – your riding fun! The same goes for the Fox 34 AWL Float fork, which comfortably absorbs shocks from rough trails while providing top-notch steering precision. Speaking of comfort: we have fitted the Newmen Performance 30 wheels with 2.6-inch Schwalbe Smart Sam tires, which combine excellent grip with a pleasant riding feel. What cannot be missing in an E-Hardtail is the quietly operating CX motor from Bosch, powered by an 800 Wh PowerTube battery – a broad grin on your face is guaranteed. Last but not least, the dropper seat post ensures reliable handling on more challenging trails. So, where should the next adventure take you?
