Expirience with the Bulls Zarena 2 29

Ludwig Döhl The Bulls Hardtail was designed for use in on long tours. And that's exactly where it shines. You have no idea if you prefer high speed stability or playful handling? Then you can´t go wrong with the Bulls Zarena 2 29. It´s handling is pleasantly balanced. The relatively high front allows you to sit upright in the saddle. If you love crisp downhill runs, there are other Racebike around under 1000 Euro that would suit you better. Despite the criticism, an argument is likely to convince serious riders: the brakes are significantly stronger than other bikes for 799 Euro!
