2020 Specialized Enduro Elite

The all-New Enduro

The new Enduro climbs quickly, yet mobs down the nastiest descents at what should be terrifying speeds…with utter calm. It’s a radically new beast, sporting a Demo-inspired chassis, more travel, and geometry that keeps you in control when you bite off more than you can chew.

Balanced Chassis Stiffness
Specialized didn’t set out to make the stiffest bike possible—that bike would be a tooth-rattling nightmare. The Enduro’s balanced stiffness helps the front-end steer precisely and keeps the rear-end tracking like it’s on rails through the roughest terrain.

Less Hang-up, More Speed
Specialized gave the Enduro a more rearward axle path, reducing the rear wheel’s tendency to “hang-up” on big impacts. Out on the trail, that equals more control, more momentum, and greater speed.

More Control
The new Enduro boasts smooth and controlled suspension, start to finish. The progressive leverage curve makes the Enduro supple over small rocks and roots and prevents it from bottoming-out on big hits.

Big Wheels, Big Momentum
Bigger wheels maintain momentum better than smaller wheels—particularly over technical terrain. That’s why the new Enduro rolls exclusively on 29-inch wheels. It marries 170 millimeters of suspension travel with big wheels in a package that’s crazy fast.
