Riassunto

The NS Synonym trail bike redefines XC geometry with its aggressive, fun design, offering a mix of speed and stability on descents. While it excels in climbing efficiency and handling on rough terrain, some reviews note limitations in suspension sensitivity and frame flex. Its unique position between XC and enduro bikes makes it stand out, though not without some ergonomic and performance trade-offs.

Pros
  • Flat-out fun geometry

  • Great grip and poise on climbs

  • Efficient platform for quick climbing

  • Incredibly stable and easy to push over or around obstacles

  • Redefines XC geometry

Cons
  • Flexy frame has limits

  • Suspension lacks sensitivity and feels slow to respond to hits

  • Awkward dropper and lockout lever ergonomics

  • Cable mess at the front

  • Frame-creaking issues

Key Quotes
NS has pushed the current trend of more radical ‘trail’ geometry right to the edge of the Enduro envelope with the Synonym.

NS Synonym RC 1 review

gen 2021 · Tom Marvin

Best suited to the steepest tracks, both up and down, the Synonym is unique among XC bikes

Pro
  • Geometry bends the rules of what you’d expect a race bike to handle

  • Stable suspension is happy under pedalling, whether locked out or not

Contro
  • Dropper post ended up more of a frustration than an asset

  • Needs a grippier front tyre to make the most of its descending abilities

NS Synonym TR 2 review - MBR

set 2020 · Alan Muldoon

NS Synonym TR is one of the most down-country bikes in attitude. And that’s because, at its heart, it is a hopped-up cross-country race bike.

Pro
  • Redefines XC geometry

Contro
  • Suspension stuck in the past

NS Synonym TR 1 review

set 2020 · Guy Kesteven

The first full-suspension XC bike from Polish MTB brand, NS Bikes, is literally a long way from conventional. But can a lightweight frame and componentry live up to the frantic fun promise of enduro geometry?

Pro
  • Flat-out fun geometry

  • Great grip and poise on climbs

  • Twin lockout for power players

  • Naturally efficient pedalling

  • Excellent fork control

  • Fast-yet-flowing tires

  • Proper XC sized chainring

  • Generous tire room

Contro
  • Flexy frame has limits

  • Fat tires on thin rims

  • Awkward dropper and lockout lever ergonomics

  • Cable mess at the front

  • Downgraded shifter, cassette and dropper post

  • Very long seat tube on large

Review: NS Bikes Synonym TR1 - Not Your Typical XC Bike

feb 2020 · David Arthur

Did someone say downcountry? The Synonym is another worthy contender in the rapidly growing field of short travel bikes with modern geometry.

Pro
  • Geometry

  • Feels like a short travel trail bike

Contro
  • Remote lockout

  • Not the lightest in this category

  • Seat tube could be shorter for longer droppers/shorter legged riders

We take a ride on the NS Synonym, a cross-country bike with a wild side or is it a short travel enduro bike?
