GASGAS ES 700 2023

The bottom line is that the ES 700 is mainly thrilling when the attack is on and the tap is cocked over whatever surface. The resistant chassis with plenty of reserves, combined with the rev-happy engine and low weight, is really fun in rally mode. Loosely swung through the terrain, however, it lacks residual comfort and also feedback. Thanks to the stable chassis, however, it can also handle motorway stages at 140 km/h or accelerate at an angle. The bottom line is that the Gas Gas ES 700 is extremely versatile, with some sacrifices in comfort. For those interested in the ES 700, the question is clear: are you tough enough or not?
