Expirience with the Megamo Factory Elite 05

Ludwig Döhl Hardtails like the Spanish Factory Elite 05 still represent the purest and only true form of mountain biking for many riders. Anyone who has no concrete preferences when it comes to handling, can´t go wrong with the Megamo. Because his handling is pleasantly balanced. Anyone who has no special preferences for the seating position can´t go wrong with the Megamo Hardtail. Because the saddle takes the balanced approach. Anyway: In the uphill, the Megamo Hardtail lets the competitors look outdated.
