ONE-FORTY 6000 rated ‘Very Good’ in MOUNTAINBIKE test

In the recently published ‘Bio vs. Light-E’ test by Germany’s MOUNTAINBIKE magazine (03/2026), our ONE-FORTY 6000 competed against the eONE-SIXTY SL 8000 in an internal duel. The ‘organic bike’ impressed the editorial team, not just with its excellent value for money (more below), and was given a ‘Very Good’ rating.

The team praised the ONE-FORTY 6000, describing it as a 'trail bike that puts a smile on your face'. They added that it was ‘playful’ and encouraged ‘pumping out of berms’. The ‘low front’ contributes to the ‘lively character of the bike’ and a ‘very sporty position’. The ONE-FORTY is ‘extremely efficient’ to pedal.

The editors explicitly highlighted the 230 mm seat post, which gives tall riders plenty of room to manoeuvre on descents without compromising the uphill position.

What the testers particularly praised:

• Very lively and playful
• Efficient pedalling position
• Excellent value for money
• Seat post with plenty of travel
• Plenty of support in the chassis
• Plenty of pressure on the front
