BH XTEP LYNX CARBON PRO 9.8 Review

Shimano has become the biggest component manufacturer for bicycles thanks to its gear, pedal and brake components. It's clear that the Japanese want to shape the E-Bike trend from this dominant market position. The Shimano motor takes away the fear of even the steepest ramps. The combination of a well-rounded riding feeling and a harmonious power delivery characterises the Shimano EP8. Thanks to the good range, longer tours with the XTEP LYNX CARBON PRO 9.8 are no problem.

The good Fox chassis confidently dampens small and medium bumps. 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. For an All Mountain , the Maxxis tires with a width of #reifen_inch_breite inches are relatively narrow. In our opinion, BH could have put on wider tires. The average shifting components and accessories leave some tuning potential open. For most e-bikers, this should be an acceptable point. 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. The low bottom bracket height will likely be a sticking point for trail riders, as it negatively affects handling.
