After spending months thrashing on the Radon Swoop in the worst the UK woods could throw at this burly 29er, we were ready to share our thoughts on the Radon's performance.

Radon's dialled geometry and sorted suspension make it a seriously capable machine, no matter what the trail throws at it. Buy if you're looking for properly contemporary geometry, lively handling and a great spec
Superb geometry that balances high speed stability and agility well
Well-balanced, supportive suspension that's easy to adjust
Sorted spec sheet
Not everyone will get on with the powerful Magura brakes
Rear tyre needs to use a softer compound and tougher casing

With 170 mm of travel, it wasn’t so long ago that the Radon SWOOP 170 would have easily passed as a purebred freeride bike.

Radon have created one of the most inspiring long travel enduro bikes we've ridden in the last year.
