This allows the Bonn-based mail order company to bolt components such as Rock Shox's upside-down fork, an XX1 drivetrain and carbon parts from Syntace onto their Black Sin without the price exploding. But the 1302 gram frame, which is large, has nothing to hide with its laboratory values either. In order to tune the acceleration values, the gram-harvesters will put latex milk in the Conti tyres. But the good-natured character should please even stubborn discounter deniers. Because on the trail, the Black Sin can forgive a wrong line or a missed braking point.
ConclusionRadon, the mail-order company, equips its good-natured racer with everything that is exclusive and expensive.
PLUS Relatively inexpensive, carbon wheels, good tyre combination, large frame mudguard on the bottom bracket, good-natured handling

The alternative For a mechanical XTR groupset (2x), a Fox 32 and Mavic Crossmax SL wheels, you pay 3799 euros for the Black Sin 10.0. For this, you get a top hardtail weighing 9.4 kilos.
