E-mountain bike hardtails with their own look are rare, but the Backfire E R760i is one of them.
The Performance Line CX from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. With torque under the motor cover, the support is generous. Nobody needs to fear steep hills anymore. Furthermore, the power of the motor control is regulated so that the start always feels dynamic,. Whoever enjoys longer tours will be pleased with the good range.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Centurion Backfire E R760i in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (4000) .

Rough descents take the good SR Suntour fork brand its course, though not with the calmness of a top-end fork. Especially heavy riders should be aware that the Shimano only decelerates poorly. Taking a holistic approach also includes looking at the gearing and components. The components are of good qualtiy and offer no reason for criticism here. The relatively high reach value in the geometry table is compensated by Centurion with a relatively short stem. Thus, the long main frame remains maneuverable in the terrain. With its 22,3 kg, the Backfire E R760i is one of the lighter E-bikes. The competition is often significantly heavier.

Expirience with the Centurion Backfire E R760i

A generous warranty also speaks of sustainable business practices. With 5 years of warranty, Centurion sets the bar high!
