Top seller: all-mountain e-bikes around 6000 euros in the test

On average, EMTB readers want to invest exactly 6286 euros in their next bike. That's a little more than would be necessary for a model with solid equipment - as our test in the small premium class shows. All-mountain e-bikes for around 6000 euros - 5 models from mail order and specialist retailers compared.
