How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as an enduro/cross-country competition weapon, it excels at tight trails, technical terrain, and off-road racing rather than road use.
- Built for

- Not ideal for
- This is not a good fit for riders wanting a comfortable commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or a highway touring machine.
