Bulls LT EVO CX 27.5” Review

The Performance Line CX from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. No matter how steep or technical the climb is: the Bosch motor makes it conquerable! At the same time, the drive provides a very natural feeling while riding with a dynamic power delivery. The well-tuned driving modes hit the mark. The average range can become a problem especially for long mountain bike rides.

In rough terrain, the LT EVO CX 27.5 lacks a bit of control with its only average fork. The narrow #reifen_inch_breite Ace of Pace tires do not do this EMTB's range of use any justice. In our opinion, Bulls has saved weight in the wrong place here. Shifting and components still leave room for improvement. Other providers dig deeper into their pockets for these assemblies. If the Meta's chainstay length is less than 445, the short chainstay and, if the Reach's Relative Rating is less than 3, the relatively short reach characterise the Bulls as a playful, agile bike. This makes it easy to navigate through winding trails. The 27.5 inch wheels additionally emphasize the playful character. The bottom bracket is high, which costs handling points. This tends to make the rider stand on the bike. On other EMTBs it feels better integrated. 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.
