KTM MACINA KAPOHO PRESTIGE Review

The Performance Line CX Smart System from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. The very well-rounded motor control and the progressive power output characterise the character of the Bosch motor. The well-tuned riding modes cater to bikers of all preferences. Whoever likes to go on long rides will be pleased with the very good range.

The frame is simply top notch, keeping you in control even on rougher trails full of fast hard hits. Bad brakes reduce the riding pleasure. Fortunately, this is not the case with the MACINA KAPOHO PRESTIGE. With their two pistons the Shimano brake brakes good. The shifting and the rest of the components are always in the shadow of the engine when it comes to electric mountain bikes. Nevertheless, KTM doesn't skimp here and instals very good 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 will likely be a sticking point for trail riders, as it negatively affects handling. 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. It's no use beating around the bush: the geometry of KTM doesn't suit our taste. Competitors are closer to the cutting edge here. Also, weight is an important factor when it comes to EMTB. The MACINA KAPOHO PRESTIGE isn't exactly shining in this regard. There are lighter All Mountains on the market.
