Velopedia analysis

What the specifications mean

Derived from the archived manufacturer recordHow Velopedia reads these specifications →

Suspension at both ends means fork and shock setup should be considered together; mismatched sag or rebound can leave the front and rear reacting very differently. The electric-assist system adds another maintenance layer, especially battery condition, charger compatibility, motor operation and any available diagnostic history. Both 27.5- and 29-inch wheels appear in the record, but it does not establish a mixed front/rear build; confirm the correct diameter for the selected frame size.

Suspension setup Front + rear Fork and shock pressure, sag and rebound should be balanced and recorded independently.
E-bike system Motor + battery documented Main-battery condition, charger compatibility, motor operation and available diagnostics belong in the inspection.
Wheel system 27.5 / 29 options Both diameters are documented, but the archive does not prove a mixed front/rear setup.
Drivetrain Electronic · 520% range Shift-system battery state joins derailleur setup and sprocket compatibility as a troubleshooting variable.

Used-bike inspection

If you’re buying this bike used

Before any test ride: both brakes should stop the bike firmly and release cleanly; both wheels should run true and be securely attached; tires should have no casing damage; and the headset, handlebar, stem, cranks and pedals should have no looseness or play.

Follow the full used-bike inspection order →
  • FrameInspect the frame in bright light, especially around the head tube, bottom bracket, chainstays and clamped areas. Look for cracks, ripples, crushed sections or signs of a previous impact.Inspect the frame and fork →
  • BrakesBoth levers should feel firm and return cleanly. Check for fluid around the levers and calipers, inspect pad thickness and contamination, and look for worn or bent rotors.Inspect the brakes →
  • E-bike systemConfirm the main battery charges with the correct charger, locks securely into its mount and has no case damage, swelling, corrosion or overheating marks. Power the bike on from cold, test every assist mode and ask for available battery-health and diagnostic records.Check the battery and electronics →
  • SuspensionAsk when the fork and shock were last serviced. Check the stanchions for damage, look for oil at the seals, cycle both units through their travel and test the suspension pivots for play.Evaluate the suspension →
  • Wheels & tiresSpin both wheels and watch the rims for side-to-side or vertical movement. Check for dents, cracks, loose or uneven spokes and hub play, then inspect both tire casings for cuts, cracking or exposed threads.Check wheels and tires →

Geometry interpretation

What this geometry means

Choose a size

S3 geometry

29

Riding position

At 450 mm of reach and 616 mm of stack, the frame is longer relative to its height, which generally creates more potential for a stretched, lower-front-end position.

Handling tendencies

A 65° head angle combined with a 1215 mm wheelbase points to more stability-oriented steering and chassis behavior. The longer the chassis and slacker the front end, the more the bike tends to favor composure over very quick direction changes.

Across the size range

From S1 - 27.5 to S6 - 29, reach grows by 125 mm and stack by 55 mm, showing how the frame becomes both longer and taller through the published size range. The rear center stays essentially constant at about 447 mm across sizes, so most of the wheelbase growth happens in the front half of the bike rather than by lengthening the rear triangle.

Geometry describes frame proportions and likely tendencies, not a ride test. Rider proportions, cockpit setup, tires, suspension settings, wheel configuration, and component choices can materially change how a bicycle fits and feels.
