Shimano XT components and a carbon frame and wheels - it's a perfect match. And the cable integration in the headset also gives a high-quality impression. The geometry is in tune with the times and fulfils all expectations of a modern race hardtail. The seat angle is steep, the steering angle is slack and the reach is also average at 452 millimetres. However, a glance at the weight table extinguishes any hopes of a leading position at the start sprint. This is because the Rebel.4 Pro weighs in at a hefty 10.6 kilos, making it heavier than many of the fullys in the test.
Conclusion on the Storck Rebel.4 Pro:
Peter Nilges, BIKE Test Leader: With Storck you get a lot of bike for your money. However, details such as the inconsistent cockpit spoil the overall picture. With its touring-orientated equipment, the Rebel feels much more at home on long tours than on the race track.
