The TrailRay 140E 7.0 wants to be a classic touring bike with 140 mm of travel on the fork.
At steep sections, the somewhat weak Yamaha motor requires a lot of initiative from the biker. The Yamaha PW-X2 gives off a well-rounded riding feeling. Fans of XXL tours are greatly restricted by the TrailRay 140E 7.0 with only an average range.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the R Raymon TrailRay 140E 7.0 in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (4000) .

Especially on root-strewn trails, the low-quality chassis puts the rider in front of greater challenges than necessary. At the brakes, R Raymon middle class four pistons brakes by Tektro are used. The components and the shifting seem less important for R Raymon. The components used here have a clear potential for improvement after a view at the competitors. The moderate head tube angle provides a good compromise between stability and agility when going downhill. The reach is also right there in the middle ground. The low bottom bracket height is a party pooper for the handling on the trail. On other bikes, you are more centrally located behind the handlebar. It's no use beating around the bush: the geometry of R Raymon doesn't suit our taste. Competitors are closer to the cutting edge here. With weight, the TrailRay 140E 7.0 is generally one of the heavier e-bikes on the market.
