The LT EVO CX 29 represents the entry-level price point for e-mountain bikes at Germany-based bike manufacturer Bulls. The attached battery is a toll to pay at the low price. However, graphic accents succeed in making the look integrative. Mounting options for mudguards, luggage racks or side stands as well as bottle cages are there.
Bosch is the major motor manufacturer in the EMTB world, alongside Shimano - and it's no surprise, as the Performance Line CX shows. The Bosch motor climbs steep ramps effortlessly. The very natural riding feeling combines the Bosch Performance Line CX with a dynamic power delivery. This great combination mixed with lots of power, is something only a few other motors at Bosch's level can achieve. Fans of XXL tours are greatly restricted by the LT EVO CX 29 , because of its low range.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Bulls LT EVO CX 29” in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (3000) .

On rough terrain, the LT EVO CX 29, with its only average fork, lacks some control. Wide tires provide more grip and comfort. Bulls tends to fit narrow tires with its #reifen_inch_breite Bulls tires. For an EMTB, we would prefer wider treads. The drivetrain and components have a subordinate but not to be neglected importance when it comes to EMTB. Even the bike brand product managers know this and don't aim too high with mostly average components. The handling of the bike is pleasantly balanced due to the moderate geometry. This allows you to intuitively control the bike over the trails. The low bottom bracket height is a party pooper for the handling on the trail. On other bikes, you are more centrally located behind the handlebar.

Value for money

Conclusion


Expirience with the Bulls LT EVO CX 29”

With a weak brake system and a weak range, the LT EVO CX 29 definitely has weaknesses. Nevertheless, it remains a solid all-rounder with a wide range of abilities , thanks to an extremely good geometry and a good motor.
