Rider Profile
| Best For | This bike suits experienced off-road riders who are comfortable with a tall, aggressive competition-focused enduro machine. |
| Purpose | Built as a cross-country and enduro racing weapon, excelling at technical trails, tight singletrack, and rough terrain rather than road use. |
| Rider Fit | The tall 948mm seat height, minimal padding, and light 103.5kg dry weight demand good rider fitness, leg length, and off-road technique over long motos. |
| Character | A razor-sharp, high-revving, race-bred single that rewards aggressive input with explosive power and pinpoint agility. |
| Not Ideal For | Not suitable for riders seeking a comfortable commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or long paved-road touring. |
