For This Bike
Apr 2020 · Paul Burwell
Radon Slide Trail 9.0 includes a carbon composite front triangle, alloy rear end, full Fox suspension and the latest Shimano 12-speed drivetrain.
Price: €2,999. Excellent suspension and handling. A ton of fun to ride.
Freehub body can spill its guts. Saddle won't suit everyone

Efficient climber
Easy, intuitive handling
Excellent value for money
Not comfortable on the climbs
Harsh suspension
Fork overwhelmed by fast impacts

A Hollywood component listing bolted to a capable frame that shows great value for money. Buy if you're a not-too-tall bargain hunter
Sleek looks, mostly solid spec, playful and balanced feel
A little short in the cockpit, issues with a loosening shock mounting bolt
