Liv Embolden Trail Bike Review: $2,300 and Fully Capable

Aug 2022 · Chris Schieffer

The Liv Embolden is a well-priced, entry-level trail bike that is fun to ride.

Highs
  • Affordable full suspension

  • Quality entry level components

  • Sizes designed for women

  • Fully capable

Lows
  • Heavy

  • “Meh” tires

  • Poor hub engagement

  • Small rotors resulting in less-than-ideal stopping power

2022 Liv Embolden Review | Brilliant trail-ready performance for less than $3,000

Feb 2022

The Liv Embolden may be the cheapest full suspension mountain bike from Liv, but it sure doesn't look like it. Equipped with a brand new frame for 2022, the Embolden features a dropper post, 1x10 drivetrain, tubeless wheels and air-sprung suspension as standard. As to how it rides? Read on for our Liv Embolden review.

Highs
  • Confidence-inspiring handling

  • Plush, traction-rich suspension

  • Genuinely tubeless-ready wheels & tyres

  • Crisp shifting and wide gear range

  • Dropper post is an absolute winner

Lows
  • Handlebars are too narrow

  • Active suspension can be a little bobby on the climbs

  • Lack of chainstay protection

Liv Embolden 1: first ride review - MBR

Aug 2021 · Michelle Arthurs-Brennan

Liv Embolden 1 is an entry-level full-sussser with 27.5in wheels and 120mm travel via a single-pivot linkage design with flex stays and 130mm RockShox fork.

Highs
  • Capable full-suspension trail bike at a great price point, offering everything you need to get started, including versatile tyres and a reliable dropper post.

Lows
  • Clunky shifting does match the price point but you may find yourself wanting to upgrade early on.
