this is the best thread for weeks. Pitcherpro - thanks for the headset tips. I'm hoping I can get away with the new 1.5 bearing for the bottom of my 2010, I cant find anywhere stocking the specialized specific headtube adaptor that the bearing sits against.

All the pictures of the 2009 Enduros make me remember how much I wanted, still want, the carbon version...might go and have a little look on ebay

@nosedive .. cheers

No worries on the headset gubbins , until the cane creek headset finder updated i'd been struggling to find any info! Mine are still running smooth its just the light surface rust is a pain in the arse after a while .
I know what you mean about the spacer ring , no info for that ANYWHERE

Pitcherpro - I'm creak free again now after some work with a piece of wet and dry and a pot of grease. Hopefully it wont keep recurring. If I manage to find out where to get those headtube adaptors from I will drop you a line. from looking up the headset tube it looks like a simple split sleeve, should be easy enough to get out. Whats the better Specialized will want ~ £50 for one?

Nah Renton, the Enduro's little brother is the stumpy! The Pitch is the long lost cousin 😀

oooh, hang on the brothers are in my garden!

Cheers Pitcherpro, I could'nt resist.... 1st ride out last week on the Stumpy (Made up of 2nd hand stuff off here!) and was really impressed. The problem is WHICH ONE TO RIDE! 😛

Some seriously cool rides on this thread though.

Your a lucky sod having the choice of two cracking double bouncers! I bet the stumpy is pretty quick?!

.....hmmm not with my fat arse on it!

I found the Fox Triad quite a suprise though, was expecting AFR'esque performance. I'm still undecided on the Float XTT's though.

It's quite funny how I get the P!ss ripped out of me by the Giant crew I ride with for having Spesh bikes, it must be jelousy 😛
They obviously don't know quality and superior suspension design when they see it.

Heres my old un, nice bikes but a bit to heavy and a bit to small to make them a good "all rounder"

The best FS I ever owned. Regret the day I sold it. Will get another when I happen upon one.
Rode best with 130mm air Revs, but could handle some pretty rough stuff with a coil Pike. Brain shock initially made it feel a bit dead, but after seeing mine ridden from behind, alongside a std version it was like mine had a lock out. Brain added half a good pound in weight though.
Lovely bikes.
I was a lot younger in the pic. 🙂

2004 Enduro Expert M
Just swapper around the shock link for a more aggressive style of riding, and more BB ground clearance for those rock gardens!
waiting on some new Fox racing TALAS RLC's to turn up, along with new tires, gear cables, chain and brake pads. give the old girl some loving before it gets ridden hard 🙂

Must have missed this first time round. Anyways here's mine another 2004 expert in medium. Nearly 10 years old but still more bike than I can do justice with. Not a lot left of the original, frame, shock and seatpost and that's it.

When we all started mtb'ing in ernest my mate got the base model (comp?) in 2002 when I got my orange sub5. He only used it ( lightly) for 6months before he stopped riding and left it in his shed. It's all completely stock apart from upgrading the brakes to hope mono minis and its in mint condition. Always wonderd if it would be worth anything.

I have an 06 s works Frame with a cracked swingarm (common on that vintage) am going to get a new back end and refurb it including powder coating - didn't someone on here powder coat and enduro? Remember it looked really good after

If these were made by some niche manufacturer no-one would be embarrassed to say they are the best MTB ever made. And I don't even own one, but I wish I did...
