Hardly any e-mountain bike with 150 mm of travel comes across more filigree than the iLYNX TRAIL CARBON PRO 8.8. The integrated seat clamp and the cable routing through the headset fit perfectly into the minimalist design.
At steep sections, the somewhat weak BH motor requires a lot of initiative from the biker. The BH 2EXMAG gives off a rough riding feeling. Thanks to the good range, longer tours with the iLYNX TRAIL CARBON PRO 8.8 are no problem. The battery is firmly integrated into the frame and can not be easily removed.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the BH iLYNX TRAIL CARBON PRO 8.8 in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (8000) .

Even on rough terrain, the iLYNX TRAIL CARBON PRO 8.8 doesn't lose its composure thanks to the excellent Fox chassis, giving you a lot of control. Whoever wants to ride fast, needs good brakes. The Shimano brakes are equipped with four pistons and large brake rotors. That way, the premium brakes decelerate more than adequately. At the drivetrain components and the rest of the parts, BH leaves almost no wishes open and only uses outstanding parts. The handling of the bike is pleasantly balanced due to the moderate geometry. This allows you to intuitively control the bike over the trails. Due to the short chainstays and the shallow seat angle , when climbing steep sections, it requires active weight shifting to prevent the front wheel from lifting.

Value for money

Conclusion


Expirience with the BH iLYNX TRAIL CARBON PRO 8.8

With a very good chassis, a very good brake system and a very good handling, the iLYNX TRAIL CARBON PRO 8.8 is an excellent choice for riders for whom fun starts mainly in the descent.
