R Raymon HardRay E 1.0 Review

At steep sections, the somewhat weak Yamaha motor requires a lot of initiative from the rider. The Yamaha PW-CE gives off a natural riding feeling. The short range unfortunately limits the tour radius quite significantly.

On rough terrain, the HardRay E 1.0, with its only average fork, lacks some control. Especially heavy riders should be aware that the Tektro only decelerates poorly. 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. If the Meta's chainstay length is less than 445, the short chainstay and, if the Reach's Relative Rating is less than 3, the relatively short reach characterise the R Raymon as a playful, agile bike. This makes it easy to navigate through winding trails. The deep bottom bracket also provides excellent cornering and thus contributes to the good handling.
