Kreidler Las Vegas 2.0 on test
If you only think of mopeds when you think of Kreidler, you're wrong. For some time now, the traditional Stuttgart-based company has also been involved in e-MTBs.

With its somewhat upright riding position and soft suspension, the Las Vegas 2.0 appeals more to comfort-conscious riders than sports bikers. Although the suspension reliably irons out even the smallest obstacles, the Kreidler lacks pressure on the front wheel due to its rear-heavy riding position. The equipment seems inconsistent. On the one hand, the gears are shifted with Sram's high-end EX1 shifter, but on the other hand, Kreidler is the only manufacturer to have dispensed with a dropper post. Kreidler relies on tried-and-tested Bosch technology for the drive and it works well.


CONCLUSION The Las Vegas is a good-natured, very comfortable bike with a somewhat unbalanced spec.
