How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- Built as a serious off-road enduro weapon for trail riding, tight woods sections, and technical terrain rather than road use.
- Built for
- A lightweight, high-clearance dirt specialist that rewards aggressive, standing-up riding and precise technical control over outright straight-line speed.
- Not ideal for
- Not a good fit for shorter riders, road-focused commuters, or anyone wanting a plush, passenger-friendly touring companion.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
