The Enduro Expert has always packed a serious punch and it's never been so true. You get 170-millimeters of the most capable downhill performance that gains elevation with surprising ease. Full FOX suspension, powerful disc brakes, and a robust alloy wheelset round it out.

  • INCREDIBLY CAPABLE 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. And 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.

  • ASTONISHINGLY FAST—UP AND DOWN THE TRAIL Stomp on the pedals and the new Enduro accelerates far quicker than you'd expect possible from a downhill bruiser. To start, we 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. The end result? Less bobbing, more speed.

  • FAST STARTS WITH FIT Fast and fit aren't mutually exclusive, which is why the progressive geometry of the Enduro has been designed for going up and down. 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.

Enduro weapon that pedals well

Bought this bike as old stock in 2023 reduced by 3k! big bargain. First ride out was a enduro came 3rd on the bike, ive since used it in various different scenarios, from uplifts, racing, to local trail riding. Great bike it pedals very well for how big of a rig it is, jumping wise...its not the most poppy in my opinion, it likes to get air using its speed more than slow big poppy hits and playful trail jumping. Stock cranks are to long, had a lot of ground strikes out the box. Spec is very good, everything is performing as it should. Great bike if you love smashing through the rough and gnar, and enjoy a easy climb back up.

Great DH Bike...but

The best bike I've had so far, great for DH, while easily go uphill to the starting gate. I'm 170cm, and use S2 size, feels at home straight away from day 1. Very flickable, lots of grip from the butcher tires. Love them. Great for jumping, whips The downside is, the 28 holes roval rims, easily dent and difficult to find replacement in Indonesia, I just replaced them with E13, I set it up with tubeless now, with the provided valves, and add rims protection hopefully can prevent dents after. Another downside is the Fox RearShock that comes with the bike, just 3 months from new, the FIRM feature (blue lever with FIRM written on) doesn't function anymore. I switch it from Firm and not Firm, feels the same.

The best DH bike I've ridden...

This bike eats everything and can handle everything :) Rode it on a crazy DHs, parks - amazing. The only thing which comes with it I replaced right away: tires, I replaced with maxxis DHR2 and Assegai on the front - you won't believe but difference is HUGE! Another thing that I don't like is the seat turned upwards a little bit - it will let you know about it's existence if you go to some long enduro trails - I don't know if it's fixable - probably I'll play with another seats or dropper post replacement - idk... but apart from that the best DH bike I've ever ridden.

Bici Top

Utilizzo la bici in Bike park ed uscite Enduro. Mi ha sorpreso la pedalabilità ,ovviamente riferita al mondo Enduro , e le capacità discesistiche notevolmente migliorate rispetto al precedente modello.

This bike is crazy

I ride this bike down trails and feautures. The pizza disc brakes are insane. You go from like 30mph to 0mph in like a second. There is just so much suspension and so much grip. It definitely is not easy up the hills, but over a downhill bike with no easy gears, its way better.

Unbelievable Bike

This is the best mtb I've ever ridden. Pedals up well, 10x better down hill.

OMG, I am obsessed with this thing

I've got a 2020 expert and am blown away by how gracefully it handles the most extreme conditions. My S4 is probably not the fastest bike going up hill but coming back down, this thing flys over rock gardens and jumps smooth as butter. I love it so much. Pro tip: the red paint is gorgeous but once it's chipped it can't really be repaired. Apply some protection if you care about that.

Hands down best enduro bike I've ever ridden

Have previously ridden Pivot Mach6, Pivot Firebird 27.5, Norco Range. This bike out pedals and out descends them all.

I absolutely love this beast

I replaced a 19' SJ expert carbon for this bike and I honestly think it pedals as good or better. I've only run it in low mode at the bike park and it's been incredibly smooth. I'd prefer this over a DH bike anyday. Does 95% of a DH bikes duties and still pedals. Would be nice if spesh uploaded the suspension settings for this bike!
