The stem is chunky, the bars offer a good width and sweep, and the saddle is WTB’s comfy Speed V model.

The rest of the finishing componentry is cheap and cheerful but, as with the crankset, it does the job. The drivetrain here is simply functional, with a 24-speed Shimano Acera/Altus mix and a clunky but efficient-shifting SR Suntour crankset. The 1.X gets 24 gears and a RockShox Dart fork. The 27-geared Deore equipped 3.X gets a hard hitting Marzocchi Bomber 22R fork and would cost you £549. There are two Warrior hardtails in Iron Horse’s entry-level range.

We set up the fork with preload half wound in for a firmer action. Our Value Guide is constantly growing with pricing information and bicycle specs daily.
This is no bad thing actually, as the 100mm (3.94in) RockShox Dart is a softly-sprung fork that, with the preload dial wound fully out, will sag to a point where the frame angles steepen by a degree or two.

There’s loads of standover clearance and plenty of room around the tyres. The flared head tube is reinforced to accommodate integral zero stack bearing cups and the down tube is heavily reinforced to spread the shocks from trail impacts. The Warrior offers a sturdily built frame that can take a little more abuse than the lighter offerings in the starter bike market.
