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?

Points forts
  • 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

Points faibles
  • Heavy overall weight

  • Not UDH-compatible

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

  • 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

Points faibles
  • 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

Privateer 161 mountain bike review

janv. 2022

Privateer’s ethos has always been rider-focused, providing an offering that is race-ready and doesn’t break the bank. The 161 is a full race bike designed to be fast, reliable and accessible to all (notwithstanding COVID’s effects on the global supply chain).
