Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a competition-focused enduro machine best suited to experienced off-road riders who are comfortable with a tall, aggressive, lightweight dirt bike.
PurposeBuilt for serious enduro racing and technical trail riding rather than road use, with race-bred WP suspension and long travel for extreme terrain.
Rider FitThe tall 960mm seat height, minimal padding, and 103.5kg dry weight demand good rider fitness, leg length, and off-road skill to manage standing and technical maneuvers.
CharacterA purebred, race-ready enduro weapon with Six Days-spec components, rewarding precise, athletic riding over rough and technical off-road sections.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for riders wanting a comfortable commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or long paved highway touring.
