The Reaction Hybrid SLX Allroad's full equipment package – including full-length mudguards, carrier, kickstand and integrated lighting system – means it's up for any challenge from a long weekend tour to the daily commute. With its battery and Bosch's smooth, quiet CX motor combined with Shimano's super-reliable, wide-ranging XT 1x12 gears, it's got the power to make light work of any route. Fox's 34 AWL Float fork smooths even the roughest of roads and paths, and we fitted powerful Shimano XT hydraulic disc brakes to ensure you can slow and stop safely, whatever the weather. Newmen's Performance 30 wheelset is tough and light and, shod with 2.6in Schwalbe tyres, is up to pretty much any challenge. And with a remote dropper seatpost thrown in, you're all set for wherever you choose to go next.

You can't help noticing the Reaction Hybrid Allroad's neat and practical mudguards, lighting set, luggage carrier and kickstand, but there's far more to it than that. We call this frame Easy Entry because that's exactly what it does. With the PowerTube battery neatly concealed and the Bosch CX drive housed securely, it's also PowerMore-ready – making it easy to add up to 250 Wh of extra battery capacity. The integrated seat clamp and cable routing complement the clean aesthetic, whilst a UDH gear hanger makes it as future-proof as possible. There's a built-in chainguide mount too, and there are sizes to cater for most riders. We've thought of everything, so you can just ride.
