If you buy the Corratec X Vert Elite, you will really feel suitably prepared for on sporty excursions. Because that´s exactly what it was developed for. When it comes down to handling, Corratec does not compromise. With its balanced handling style, the Corratec is ready for the majority of singletrails. When sitting in the saddle, the posture is neither overly sporty, nor uber-comfortable. This should make the Corratec Hardtail suite the taste of most bikers. On the downhill, however, the X Vert Elite is left in the dust by its competitors. But one should not underestimate that wheels are extremely important for the riding experience on the trail. Corratec knows this and installed higher quality than the competitors at the price of 1149 Euro . With 6 years warranty, you can not go wrong.
