BH iLYNX TRAIL CARBON PRO 8.9 Review

At steep sections, the somewhat weak BH motor requires a lot of initiative from the biker. The BH 2EXMAG gives off a digital riding feeling. Thanks to the good range, longer tours with the iLYNX TRAIL CARBON PRO 8.9 are no problem. The integrated battery gives developers constructive freedom when designing the frame. However, to charge it, the bike always has to be brought near an outlet.

In the Downhill, the bike racks up plenty of points. The fantastic Fox chassis calmly and confidently handles rough terrain. With its four pistons and larger brake rotors the Shimano braking system decelerates outstandingly. This allows you to maintain control over your own pace even in the steepest descents. At the drivetrain components and the rest of the parts, BH goes all-in and only uses top-notch parts. The moderate head tube angle provides a good compromise between stability and agility when going downhill. The reach is also right there in the middle ground. Short chainstays and and a slack seat angle make the front end light in steep climbs. To keep the front wheel on the ground, you need to consciously lean forward.
