2018 Enduro Comp 29/6Fattie
One of our newest demo bikes to the shop, the 2018 Enduro Comp 29/6Fattie will keep you hungry for more and more trail. This bike is a machine. It is fun, and fast, and grippy, and can I say, "FUN," again? :)
I took this bike out for one of the Shenandoah Valley Bicycle Coalition Friday 6 Pack group rides, and I think the word I used to describe riding it to my friends was, "ridiculous." It is just absolutely ridiculous how much fun riding this bike down Road Hollow was - how in control I felt even when hitting the descents faster than I ever had before, and how quick it was to respond when I needed to pedal as fast as possible.
If you get the chance, you should ride it! (Check out our demo bikes HERE!)
The 2018 Enduro comes with a few changes from the 2017 model after Specialized heard feedback from riders. The 2018 model now has a slacker front end, a longer top tube, shorter chain stays, and the bottom bracket has been lowered a bit. A new feature that I think is pretty cool is the ability to toggle from a "high" BB height at 354mm to a "low" BB height at 346mm. All of this together makes the bike truly feel glued to the ground, and the platform is more responsive and capable then ever.
