How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built purely for technical enduro trails, woods riding, and competitive offroad use rather than road or highway travel.
- Built for
- A featherweight, high-revving two-stroke enduro bike that rewards aggressive, active riding with sharp handling and explosive low-weight agility over obstacles.
- Not ideal for
- Not suitable for riders wanting a comfortable commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or a machine for sustained highway touring.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
