Conway Cairon S 5.0 Review

The Cairon S 5.0 already has 29er wheels, but is not suitable for extreme off-road sections with its rigid rear end.
Bosch is the major motor manufacturer in the EMTB world, alongside Shimano - and it's no surprise, as the Performance Line CX shows. No matter how steep or technical the climb is: the Bosch motor makes it conquerable! At the same time, the drive provides a very well-rounded feeling while riding 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. Thanks to the very good range, you should no longer have any range problems even on very long tours.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Cairon S 5.0 in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (4000) .

The good RST fork dampens small and medium bumps confidently when mountain biking. The components and the gears are less in the spotlight with an EMTB than with bikes without motor. Nevertheless, when we take a look we find out that here, good components are always used. When it comes to the geometry, Conway does not go completely crazy. The head tube angle and reach values were chosen with care. The result: A balanced riding behaviour with a good combination of playfulness and straight-line stability. Overall, the Conway developers have done a great job with a god geometry.

Conclusion


Expirience with the Conway Cairon S 5.0

The Cairon S 5.0 is a real multitool for long tours on forest roads and easy single trails. Although there is still room for improvement at a poor brake system. Nevertheless, with a very good geometry, a very strong range and a good motor make it a capable Tourenbikes from Conway with a very wide range of use. The warranty of 5 years proves that Conway has a lot of trust in its products.
