The Reactor ST isn't as fast as some uphill, but it’s a proper demon when pointed back down

Pros
  1. Surefooted downhill demon
  2. great spec at a reasonable price
  3. good geometry and ride position
Cons
  1. Easy going but not as efficient as some uphill
  2. only slightly lighter than the top-spec Reactor which has more travel and a burlier build

  5. Not the very best pedaling efficiency
  6. Finish is perfectible

ENDURO Mountainbike Magazine
