The Enduro Expert has always packed a serious punch and it's never been so true. You get 170-millimeters of the most capable downhill performance that gains elevation with surprising ease. Full FOX suspension, powerful disc brakes, and a robust alloy wheelset round it out.
INCREDIBLY CAPABLE
If the Enduro looks like its sibling, the Demo, it's because they share plenty of downhill DNA. A more-rearward axle path reduces wheel hang-up on big impacts. A low- and forward-positioned shock keeps it planted and confident-feeling at high speeds. And balanced chassis stiffness helps the front-end steer precisely and keeps the rear-end tracking like it’s on rails. Add it all up and you have a bike that laughs in the face of the steepest, rockiest trails.
FAST STARTS WITH FIT
Fast and fit aren't mutually exclusive, which is why the progressive geometry of the Enduro has been designed for going up and down. To start, seat tubes and stack heights don’t grow massively between sizes, meaning you can now pick a frame size based on both your height and your riding style. Pair this new sizing style with a slacker head angle, longer reach, and steeper seat tube across the line, and you’re left with a quicker and more capable steed, no matter the size.
The Enduro's sizing is different than the standard S/M/L/XL sizing. It's style-specific similar to the Demo and Stumpjumper Evo. Style-specific geometry has short seat tubes, low standover and short head tubes across all sizes, giving riders the ability to choose a size based on reach and wheelbase, rather than inseam length or height. Riders who prefer the more nimble handling of a short wheelbase can size down whereas riders who prefer the stability of a longer wheelbase can size up. Style-specific geo gives riders more options.
Seat tube lengths, standover height and head tube lengths vary less between sizes. Riders can now easily size up and still fit a longer dropper post. Sizes available are S2, S3, S4 and S5. We can help you if you're unsure of size.
Seat tubes, standover and head tubes vary more between Small to XL sizes. Riders who previously wanted to go with bigger sizes had to run shorter droppers or just couldn't stand over them at all.
Note that the Enduro features a flip-chip in the lower shock that allows you to alter the geometry. High mode slightly steepens the head angle 0.4° and raises the BB height by 7mm.

The frame is the single most important factor in a bike's ride quality. While there are many other components involved, the frame is what ties it all together and ultimately determines how well a bike rides. Specialized makes the highest quality, most sorted frame on the market. The fit and finish is excellent and they ride amazing.
