Expirience with the Devinci Kobain Deore 12S

Ludwig Döhl When using it as on moderate to demanding trails, the Devinci Trailbike really shows its full potential. The handling of this bike is balanced. So its pretty intuitive to control on singletrails. The moderate seating position is likely to be the perfect middle ground for the majority of bikers. Looking at only the shifting system of the rest of the bikes you have to say that other manufacturers in the price range under 3000 Eurouse higher quality components. But one should not underestimate that wheels are extremely important for the riding experience on the trail. Devinci knows this and installed higher quality than the competitors at the price of 2249 Euro . A nice warranty promises sustainability. With 25 years warranty Devinci sets the bar high!
