The motor suits the bike well, only at low revs does the support feel a little rough. Bulls has given the E-Stream plenty of suspension travel, which provides a lot of confidence on descents. The slack angles and wide handlebars create an enduro feeling. Uphill, the rear suspension feels soft and sags. The platform adjustment on the shock can't improve this. The component mix of the Bulls is fine. There are hardly any cheat parts. However, it lacks an adjustable seatpost and we found the wide "health grips" a little unsuitable.
ConclusionIf you're looking for an E-MTB that really lets you fly downhill, the Bulls E-Stream Evo is the right choice.
