Review: Bergamont Contrail C MGN (Model 2015)
Worth every penny. The smooth-running, exclusively appointed Bergamont Contrail C MGN makes with its strong motor fun. Especially uphill inspire the 29-inch wheels with their grippy tires.

- quality equipment
- powerful engine
- strong chassis
What we do not like
- expensive
- not for heavy riders
Class: The most expensive Fully in the test, the Bergamont Contrail C MGN, pulls up with Shimano’s top XTR circuit — but unfortunately only in the 10-speed version, otherwise a bit more power would be on the mountain still in there. Even so, the tangy motor bike drives strong.
The top frosted 29-inch wheels help to create a lot of grip and optimum traction. Something taut, but with good reserves operates the landing gear, plus there’s a lowerable seatpost. A great bike!
