How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built for cross-country and enduro-style off-road racing where light weight, agility, and a lively 2-stroke power delivery matter more than outright top speed or comfort.
- Built for
- A raw, high-strung, and playful machine that rewards active, aggressive riding with sharp handling and explosive 2-stroke acceleration out of corners.
- Not ideal for
- This bike is not suited to riders wanting a comfortable daily commuter, a passenger-friendly tourer, or a road-legal high-speed machine.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
