Bikeperfect says the new BIG.TRAIL is "riotously enjoyable" awarding it an impressive 4.5/5 score

Press plaudits for the new BIG.TRAIL have already been coming in, with Bikeperfect saying that it is an "extremely capable and enjoyable rad riding hardtail that's also fully loaded with super reliable kit" in a review that awarded it an impressive 4.5 / 5 stars.

The revised geometry and handling of the new BIG.TRAIL came in for praise, with the tester saying that it "totally dominated snaking chutes that I’d been really concerned about rolling into beforehand and it’ll rail a turn like someone has you on a lunge rein".

With a 140 mm travel fork and 29" wheels on all bikes, the ride feel of the aluminium frame was also highlighted, with the tester saying that it has an "excellent blend of traction-boosting compliance without worrying twang or wander that could teach many steel bikes a lesson" and that it was "clearly a bike that’s been ride tested into a really righteous balance for as much radness as you can handle".

The attention to detail in the specification was another high point for the reviewer, adding that the "frame and parts pick are loaded with solid choices and smart details that really elevate the complete package too" and that it was also "well-priced".

In summary, the new bike was called a "serious rad ride that’ll kick ass on proper enduro trails while still letting you mount a kickstand for work days" and that it had a "riotously enjoyable, yet fail-forgiving ride".
