BH ILYNX TRAIL CARBON PRO 8.9 Review

At steep sections, the somewhat weak BH motor requires a lot of initiative from the rider. The BH 2EXMAG gives off a rough riding feeling. Whoever enjoys longer tours will be pleased with the good range.

The high-quality Fox chassis also takes away the fear of rough root sections. When it comes to the brakes, BH reaches for the top shelf and instals premium brakes with four pistons and large brake rotors from Shimano. At the drivetrain components and the rest of the parts, BH goes all-in and only uses outstanding parts. When it comes to the geometry, BH does not go completely crazy. The head tube angle and reach values were chosen with care. The result: A balanced riding behaviour with a good combination of playfulness and straight-line stability. 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.
