Summary
The Specialized Enduro is a high-performance enduro bike praised for its efficient climbing, stable descending, and intuitive handling. It features updated geometry and adjustable suspension, making it versatile for various terrains.

The Enduro Comp offers stability and comfort on the roughest of trails but doesn't feel as taut or lively as it could do. Buy if you want a comfortable big wheeler that'll handle the big hits without beating you up too much in the process
Well-balanced suspension, easy to set up, great tyres for a variety of conditions, new geometry makes a difference
