The Sonic EVA 1 is the highest quality hardtail in the model range of the Cologne-based Bulls brand. The design of the frame looks futuristic thanks to the angular lines and thus creates the perfect transition between the cheaper hardtails and the higher quality fullys.
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 takes away the fear of even the steepest ramps. The combination of a very well-rounded riding feeling and a dynamic power delivery characterises the Bosch Performance Line CX. This great combination mixed with lots of power, is something only a few other motors at Bosch's level can achieve. Whoever enjoys longer tours will be pleased with the good range.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Bulls Sonic EVA 1 in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (4000) .

The Bulls fork on beginner level was stingy with comfort. Especially for heavy riders, the Bulls brakes could be a problem. With four pistons they only decelerate averagely. At the drivetrain components and the rest of the parts, Bulls uses average parts. If the Meta's chainstay length is less than 445 435 mm, then it has a short chainstay and a moderate reach value make the handling pleasantly playful. The small 27.5 inch wheels give the bike a lively character. 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. For the good geometry, the developer team of Bulls definitely deserves props. Such a knack for detail in geometry is rarely seen.

Conclusion


Expirience with the Bulls Sonic EVA 1

The developers of Bulls have created a solid all-rounder with the Sonic EVA 1. Even though the E-Mountainbike reveals a weak flank with a weak fork and a mediocre brake system, it remains thanks to a very good geometry, a good motor and a good range:Genetiv a widely applicable vehicle.
