By taking part in our reader survey, you’re helping us make E-MOUNTAINBIKE Magazine even better. What do you want from future eMTBs? Which components get you stoked – and which ones drive you mad? Which motor really delivers out on the trail? And what features are missing from your everyday ride? We want to know! And we’re not the only ones. This survey is one of the most representative in the entire bike industry – and the feedback you give will help brands build better, smarter bikes. In short: your opinion shapes what ends up on the trails tomorrow – not just where you ride, but around the world. Needless to say, your data stays private. We’ll only use your responses anonymously for statistical analysis.

And because we know how valuable your time is, we want to give something back. Together with Specialized and Haibike, we’re giving away two stunning bikes to thank you for your input.
In its top-tier spec variant, the Specialized Turbo Levo 4 Comp nailed it in our big 2025 group test – earning a well-deserved Best in Test.
„The new Levo proves that you don’t need to chase superlatives to be the ultimate all-rounder – you just have to find the right balance. It’s heavier than its predecessor, and yet delivers the most balanced handling in the entire test field, whether you’re a newbie or a seasoned trail veteran. Its character is a perfect blend of composure and playfulness. Top-notch handling + cleverly engineered features + standout motor system = well-deserved test win!“
