NS Define 150 AL review

May 2020 · Robin Weaver

The Define 150 AL is packed full of promise and has great geometry. It’s not quite as comfy as some and the spec does fall a little short in places

Highs
  • Great geometry

  • Confident feel to the rear suspension

  • Niggling issues with some elements of the spec

  • Not the comfiest ride on really rough descents
