Expirience with the FUJI Rakan 29 1.7

Ludwig Döhl The independent M-Link rear suspension of the Rakan 29 1.7 is proof that Fuji consciously wants to position itself beyond the mainstream. The flat 65 degree head tube angle of the Rakan 29 1.7 gives the rider lots of confidence in challenging terrain. The combination of a long top tube and low stack value will make you sit sporty on the Rakan 29 1.7. There are All Mountain in the price under 3000 Euro that have more potential downhill. But one should not underestimate that wheels are extremely important for the riding experience on the trail. FUJI knows this and installed higher quality than the competitors at the price of 2099 Euro .
