had my enduro for a month now, in that time it has been up a mountain, also to a trail center, and yesterday, round a tough dales route.
a few negatives 1st,
a 160mm full sus bike is not the ideal bike for a trail center.
the cable routing under the bb on the enduro is a rubbish idea. when the suspension compresses, the cables splay causing the brake housing to rub on the crank on every pedal stroke. also managed to squash the housing on a rock whilst climbing a steppy bit of trail.
1 x 10 is pretty useless in a proper mountain environment. to climb a rocky steep climb MOST blokes will need a 22 inner ring.
now a few positives.
160mm front and back is fantastic on long rocky downhills, and on rocky level bits, where you can sit and spin.
modern suspension is proper fantastic nowadays, and a doddle to set up even by a numpty like me.
dropper posts, once poo pood by me are also ace.
