Expirience with the Superior XP 929

Ludwig Döhl The Czech brand Superior builds mountain bikes for over 30 years. The XP 929 also follows the sporty character and price-performance orientation for which the Superior has always been known. Anyone who has no concrete preferences when it comes to handling, can´t go wrong with the Superior Racebike. Because his handling is pleasantly balanced. Due to the interplay of a relatively long top tube and a low stack, the riding position is sporty. 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. An important point at the end: The sporty orientation makes the Superior Hardtail a real mountain goat in the Racebikes. Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon frame sizing runs big.
