In order to offer customers a better price/performance ratio, Trenga De has been focussing exclusively on direct shipping since February of this year. A look at the equipment package of the GLM 8.0 shows that the calculation works. Lightweight parts such as the SRAM X.0 rear derailleur and shifter as well as the Truvativ Noir carbon cranks are rarely found in this price range. On the other hand, the frame with its own unique details is quite heavy. The riding characteristics are balanced, the riding position is race-oriented and heavy riders will appreciate the large brake discs.
CONCLUSIONS: Rather sporty orientated hardtail with high-quality components, clean workmanship and acceptable overall weight.
TUNING TIP: Have the fork converted to 100 millimetres.
