Your Enduro ride

As Quantum said earlier

 

"#ENDURO™©®[/size]" is a form of Racing

 

Even if someone says they are getting an #ENDURO™©® bike its actually just an All MTN bike that they will use for [/size]#ENDURO™©®[/size]

 

Setups change dependent on the course no matter what.

Headangles change, suspension setup, travel etc.

 

But you look at the EWS and see what bikes guys use ....

Most are at 150 - 160mm if 650B .... or 140 to 160 if 29er.

 

Graves - Yeti SB6C - 650B - 160mm travel

Nico Lau - Cube Stereo 160 - 650B - 180mm front fork 

Justin Leov - Trek Remedy 9.8 - 29er - 140mm

Tracey Moseley - Trek Remedy 9.8 - 29er - 140mm

 

At some EWS rounds racers have been known to go down to 120mm 29ers - see Final Ligure last year - some dude was on a 120mm Ripley 29er

 

So all bikes used for #ENDURO™©® are Trail or All MTN bikes.[/size]

 

And all riders are snobs who drink fancy coffee and IPA's[/size]

interesting to see that they do use 29ers as well.

Here is my AM/Enduro/DH Machine...... Sold my Reign and Fury to fund 'THE-ONE-BIKE'....

I am going to spend the entire 2015 season racing DH and Enduro on this Bad Boy....

The only changes I will make when racing DH is slapping on a stronger Wheelset....

Cables have been shortened and the Dropper replaced with a newer model.

I believe I've seen this exact SB in the classifieds here, some time back. I remember visiting the ad every morning and drooling all over my PC...

Thinking of a yeti SB95 for enduro (would be a frame change from the current spark)

 

thoughts? 

 

No thought required. Yeti for the win.

 

Will see you through some fun Enduros and still get you through those stage races (if its required)...

sb95 frame weight = 3.08kg

 

trance 29er frame = 2.67kg

 

same travel, 400g different.

 

that being said, dont let that stop you, it looks way better and will make for way better trailside conversations
