Rider Profile

Best ForThis machine suits intermediate to experienced off-road riders comfortable with a light, tall, aggressive enduro chassis.
PurposeBuilt purely for enduro and technical off-road riding, with big suspension travel and a lightweight frame prioritizing agility over comfort or top speed.
Rider FitThe tall 940mm seat height and minimal 8.5 litre fuel range demand a fit, taller rider comfortable standing on the pegs for extended periods.
CharacterA raw, purposeful dirt weapon that rewards active riding and precise input rather than relaxed cruising.
Not Ideal ForThis is not a good fit for riders wanting a comfortable commuter, a passenger-friendly bike, or long-distance paved touring.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
