The Devinci Spartan 29 is meant to go fast and hard over everything a trail can throw at it.

The Ransom is my favorite of this trio, and with a few tweaks could be the best enduro bike on the market.

Devinci has done a great job of updating every aspect of what was an already very capable, well-thought-out bike.

[Tested] The New Devinci Spartan Carbon 29

Sep 2018 · Francesco Mazza

Devinci has launched a new version of the Spartan with 29″ wheels and they’ve also refined it with some new details that make it a more modern, aggressive enduro race weapon, ready to race on the toughest stages of the EWS or to challenge friends on the home trails. After several aluminum prototypes made last winter directly at the Canadian headquarters of Chicoutimi, followed by some prototypes in carbon, the Devinci testers, including Damien Oton, have approved of the final version of the Spartan Carbon 29 that will be raced this weekend at the final EWS in Finale Ligure and then released into the market
