Expirience with the Radon SLIDE TRAIL AL 7.0

Ludwig Döhl The Slide is a classic in the online store of Radon and rolls 2023 with new aluminum frame on the trails. On the scale, the All Mountain von Radon with 14,5 kg looks good. Most All Mountain in the price range until under 3000 Euro are heavier. The moderate 65,6 degree head tube angle ensures a balanced handling. The seating position does not manage to be too athletic, nor too upright. It´s moderate character is likely to suite the vast majority of bikers. 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. Radon knows this and installed higher quality than the competitors at the price of 2499 Euro . The guarantee promise of 6 years ensures trust.
