Find out if it’s a bad compromise between full-power eebs and regular pedal bikes, or the ultimate in modern riding. Plus updates on the Nukeproof Scout, Focus Jam, Kona Process.

The difference between the best and the worst, in terms of durability and air volume shifted, can be vast, so read our test to find out which works and which ones are full of hot air.
