Zusammenfassung

  • Dialed geometry gives a balanced ride

  • Practical do-it-yourself mechanic features

  • Excellent for big sends and gnarly terrain

Cons
  • Significant price increase from the previous version

  • Heavy weight (40 lbs)

  • Not the quietest bike with some mechanical noises

  • Hunt Enduro V2 wheels are too flexy for hard cornering

  • No UDH hanger

Key Quotes
It’s so easy to just ride this bike down things, over things, through things.
BIKE Magazine logoBIKE Magazine
The ease of riding at pace gave me the confidence to attack trails, safe in the knowledge that the 161 Gen 2 would make sense of rock gardens and rutted root sections when riding got hectic.

How does an 18.2 kg bike climb? Not nearly as bad as you might think.

Privateer 161 Gen 2 on Test – Full Send Instead of Cruise Control

Mai 2025 · Lars Engmann, Robin Ulbrich

We tested the Privateer 161 Gen 2 for you – and didn’t just hammer it down the trails of Finale Ligure. Want to know how it performs on the trail?

Höhen
  • Easy maintenance thanks to the external cable routing and oversized industrial bearings

  • Impressive downhill potential with plenty of reserves

  • Inspires tons of confidence on the trail

Tiefs
  • Heavy overall weight

  • Not UDH-compatible

  • Spec doesn’t quite match the bike’s aggressive character

Privateer 161 (Gen 2) review

Apr. 2025 · Ross Demain

The Privateer 161 (Gen 2) has great geometry, a decent build kit, external routing (yes!) and rides very, very impressively.

Höhen
  • Great geometry

  • Decent build kit

  • External routing

  • Good value for money

  • User-friendly features

  • Easy maintenance and repair

  • Compelling collection for the money

  • Great platform for pedalling

  • Plenty of support for climbing

  • Impressive descender

  • Natural, neutral, predictable geometry

  • Confidence-inspiring on jumps and drops

  • Calm and composed on steep and fast trails

  • Top end suspension

  • Under £3k

Tiefs
  • Heel rub

  • Suspension stuttery at slow speeds

  • No raw option like the Gen1

  • Tyres are rather overkill

  • 180mm travel dropper is underkill

  • Higher rise bars on larger sizes and shorter stems all round would be nice

Another party trick is that it's compatible with dual crown forks up to 200 mm travel, and rear travel can be extended to 175 mm with a longer-stroke shock. .
