Radon Swoop 10.0: first ride review - MBR

May 2021 · Alan Muldoon

Radon Swoop 10.0 is a 29er enduro bike with 170mm travel at both ends. Carbon front triangle with alloy stays. M, L and XL frame sizes.

Highs
  • Versatile big rig that doesn’t get bogged down in its travel. Fun, playful ride that’s killer value for money. Radon hasn’t tried to push the boat out with extreme geometry or sizing and as a result the bike is super-easy to ride. Will serve dual duty as a long-travel trail bike.

Lows
  • Only available in three frame sizes. No water bottle mount. 2020 discounted bikes are sold out.

Highs
  • Supportive and progressive rear

  • Solid build spec

  • Great Value

  • High speed stability

Lows
  • Lack of sensitivity

  • Flimsy tire spec

  • Short dropper

  • Long seat tubes

Radon Swoop 170 10.0 first ride review

Aug 2019 · Luke Marshall

Radon has retained its three-position flip-chip, which lets you change the bottom bracket height and head/seat angles to suit your riding style, but has updated the geometry to suit the new 29in wheels.. .

Radon SWOOP 170 10.0 Review

Jun 2017 · Christoph Bayer

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.
