Best of all worlds: the Reaction Hybrid Pro FE combines the versatility of a fully equipped tourer and the ruggedness of a mountain bike, with added Bosch power. The mudguards, luggage carrier, kickstand and lights are just the start. You can also tackle any route, off-road or on, with ease thanks to an 800Wh battery and powerful Bosch CX drive. Combined with Shimano's wide-ranging XT 12-speed gears, it's all you need to comfortably ride any hill. For coming back down the other side, we fitted strong Shimano 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes and grippy Schwalbe 2.6in tyres. There's also a RockShox Recon Silver air fork with 120mm of travel (100mm for small frame sizes and for all Easy Entry models), and a remote dropper seatpost for extra comfort and control.

The Reaction Hybrid FE is full of neat touches – and we're not just talking about the included mudguards, carrier, lighting set and kickstand. It's PowerMore-ready, making it easy to add up to 250Wh of extra battery capacity. The 800Wh PowerTube battery and powerful Bosch CX drive are so neatly integrated, you'll barely notice them. The integrated seat clamp and cable routing complement the clean aesthetic, and the chain guide keeps everything where it should be. Plus, with Size Split, it's easy to find the perfect fit for every rider. We've thought of everything, so you can just ride.
