Review on Mountain bike (MTB) Stinger Element Evo 26 (2021) orange 14" (requires final assembly) by Micha Kobiaka ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Exactly as promised by the manufacturer, high quality.

I bought it for a promotion plus a promotional code for a total of 11900. They wrote that they were changing the switches to a microshift, but I was lucky. Came led January 2022 there shifters and shimano shifters, naturally entry-level, but nonetheless. Only the brakes are not Shimano and not branded, but they slow down well, they have a knob on which you can set the gap if the brake screeches. Disks are not crooked, wheels without eights. I tightened the spokes, with a native broach, they made a little noise when driving. In general, everything is cheap, but the assembly is good, everything works. This is the main thing for such a bike. Below only The fork is too soft for my 75 kg, it is immediately squeezed by 2-3 cm only when landing. Maybe this is even a plus for someone. But it walks well under load, and does not break through if you drive without heavy off-road. The reel is good, I changed my native tires to slicks right away, it rides perfectly. The rear cassette with a ratchet moves a little while driving, the backlash could not be removed. But it doesn't affect driving. You need some tweaking, but then everything works. Two months of daily driving to work, nothing broke or misaligned.

Pros
  • Came with shimano all around. Aluminum frame, wheels without figure eights. I climbed everywhere, there is lubrication everywhere, even in the pedals)) There is even a lot of lubrication in the forks, at first you will wipe it.
Cons
  • For 11,900 they are not.
