Honestly, you can’t ask for much more out of a bike. It pedals well, it descends well, and it looks great while doing it.

Unlike some of the Rail 29's long-travel peers, this 155mm bike felt more about enjoying the ride rather than straightlining through a course, readily hopping around and changing direction.

Review: The 155mm Revel Rail 29 Wants More Uphill

Jul 2022 · Alicia Leggett

Unlike some of the Rail 29's long-travel peers, this 155mm bike felt more about enjoying the ride rather than straightlining through a course, readily hopping around and changing direction.

Highs
  • Balanced, fun all-arounder

  • Impressive climbing ability without sacrificing the descent

  • Customizable build options

Lows
  • No inexpensive build kit options

  • Same chainstay length across all sizes

  • Not the rock crushing enduro bike some might have hoped for
