How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built specifically for competitive extreme enduro, hard enduro, and technical trail riding where minimal weight and maximum suspension travel matter most.
- Built for
- A purpose-built, race-derived two-stroke enduro weapon that feels sharp, explosive, and utterly focused on technical terrain rather than comfort or refinement.
- Not ideal for
- This is not the right choice for commuting, highway touring, carrying a passenger, or anyone seeking plush comfort and low maintenance.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
