| Best suited to | Riders moving from gravel to entry trail. Fire trails, blue runs at You Yangs. | New eMTB riders who want an air fork and 12-speed Deore on an affordable hardtail. | |
| Main trade-off | Sport 2 motor lacks the torque of the Pro model on steep climbs. | The 430Wh battery is modest for long trail days unless you add the range extender. | |
