Expirience with the Bulls BLACK ADDER

Ludwig Döhl The Bulls Racing Team has made the BLACK ADDER a bike that hobby racers should always have on their watchlist when it comes to bike shopping. The geometry is moderate and makes for a balanced handling. There are bikes with a more sporty, but also with more comfortable seating approach. The Bulls wants to combine the best of the two worlds with a moderate orientation. In the price range under 3000 Euro, other manufacturers tend to install higher quality shifting systems. Trail lovers should nevertheless be convinced by this argument: in the downhill, the coherent geometry ensures you´ll have a wide smile in your face.
