Mixed Wheels at R Raymon
Mixed wheels are the trump card. R Raymon is also moving with the times and has given its E-Enduro Trailray a large front wheel. It starts at 3999 euros with a top drive, large battery and good suspension.

The young German brand R Raymon has never been known for pharmacy prices. Now the Schweinfurt-based company is going one better and giving the Trailray enduro flagship a performance boost as well as an even more attractive price-performance ratio.

Powerful, harmonious and pleasingly quiet: The Yamaha PW-X2 is not found in many bikes. At Raymon, the top model 2021 can be found in all four model variants of the Trailray.Photo: Adrian Kaether Powerful, harmonious and pleasingly quiet: The Yamaha PW-X2 is not found in many bikes.

29 inches at the front: performance boost for the Trailray

The first change for 2021: the large front wheel! No wonder, because the advantages of a mixed-wheel concept - more safety off-road with comparable playfulness - are obvious. The suspension travel at the front will be reduced from 170 to 160 millimetres, while the rear will remain at 160 millimetres due to the unchanged frame.

The Trailray E 10.0 is the second most expensive model in the new range. Nevertheless, the price will probably still be a relatively fair €5,000.Photo: Adrian Kaether The Trailray E 10.0 is the second most expensive model in the new range.

E-Enduro from 4000 euros: Models, equipment, prices

The equipment has also been updated: the top model E 11.0 now features the new Fox 38, as well as a state-of-the-art component mix. The Trailray E 8.0 entry-level model is particularly attractive: at € 3999, it remains below the magical € 4000 mark, but already offers powerful suspension with Rockshox Deluxe shock and SR Suntour Durolux fork and, like the top model, is powered by the Yamaha PW-X2 with a large 630 watt-hour battery.

With the Trailray E 8.0, you can get started for just € 3999. On board: Yamaha PW-X2, a 630 watt-hour battery and suspension that is already impressive with SR Suntour Durolux and Rock Shox Deluxe R shock. A very strong package in this price range!Photo: Adrian Kaether With the Trailray E 8.0, you can get started for just € 3999.

If you have a little more money to spend, you can also opt for the E 9.0 (Rockshox ZEB, Superdeluxe), the E 10.0 (Fox 36, DPX2) or the aforementioned top model E 11.0. However, with an RRP of 5499 euros, the price of this bike is also quite moderate.
