A truly great bike is one that performs exceptionally well and, above all, provides immense enjoyment – just like the Stereo Hybrid ONE44 HPC SLX 800, featuring its Fox 36 Float 36 Rhythm fork and matching Float Performance shock, boasting 150 mm and 140 mm of travel. It is also equipped with Newmen Performance 30 wheels, fitted with Continental Kryptotal 2.4-inch tires. The result: top-notch performance and a ride feel that’s like floating on clouds. In terms of propulsion and range, the Bosch CX motor, offering up to 100 Nm of torque and the Kiox 400C display for optimal monitoring, showcases its strengths alongside the 800 Wh battery. This power is seamlessly controlled on the trail by the smooth, highly reliable Shimano XT 12-speed drivetrain. However, such power also requires excellent control – a specialty of the sharp, progressive, and reliable Shimano XT 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes with 203 mm rotors. It’s only natural that we equipped this trail machine with a dropper seat post. Adventure mode activated, let’s go!
