The Details
The Enduro Expert has 170-millimeters of the most capable downhill performance that gains elevation with surprising ease. Full RockShox suspension, powerful disc brakes, and a robust alloy wheelset round it out to be a fully capable all mountain bike.
If the Enduro looks like its sibling, the Demo, it’s because they share plenty of downhill DNA. A more-rearward axle path reduces wheel hang-up on big impacts. A low and forward positioned shock keeps it planted and confident-feeling at high speeds. The balanced chassis stiffness helps the front-end steer precisely and keeps the rear-end tracking like it’s on rails. Add it all up and you have a bike that laughs in the face of the steepest, rockiest trails.
When you finish the down, the new Enduro accelerates far quicker than you'd expect possible from a downhill bruiser. To start, it has increased anti-squat, so the suspension better-resists pedal bob. Then, to further its efficiency, we re-directed the angle of the chainstay and upper shock linkages for a much more efficient design. This will leave you with a more efficent bike and and one that will eat up the miles.
To start, seat tubes and stack heights don’t grow massively between sizes, meaning you can now pick a frame size based on both your height and your riding style. Pair this new sizing style with a slacker head angle, longer reach, and steeper seat tube across the line, and you’re left with a quicker and more capable steed, no matter the size.
- 170mm of travel
- Powerful Disc Brakes
- Downhill orientated
- Increased Stiffness
- robust alloy wheelset
Our Verdict
A bike capable of the longest ups and gnarliest downs!
