Summary
The Specialized Enduro is celebrated for its versatility across both climbing and descending, with reviewers highlighting its agile geometry, supple suspension, and the choice between 650b and 29er wheel sizes. Its design philosophy aims to blend the acceleration of a light trail bike with the rough terrain capability of a mini-DH bike. While praised for its performance, some critiques include the weight of aluminum frames and the preference for different dropper post options.

This bike comes with a legendary reputation, way back in mid-2013 it emerged as one of the first 29ers to challenge perceptions of what a big wheeler was capable of. It’s received a major overhaul for 2017, and as we discussed in our initial impressions piece back in August, we like the changes Specialized have implemented. So, what …
Balanced, well thought out geometry.
Pratical frame construction and finishes.
Dual wheelsize compatibility.

The Specialized Enduro Expert Carbon 29 is a lot of bike, but would it prove justified or just plain overkill for most riders?
