At a glance

The 2018 Specialized Enduro Elite 29/6Fattie is a Enduro and Trail Carbon mountain bike. It sports 29" wheels, is priced at $6,600 AUD and a SRAM drivetrain. The bike is part of Specialized's Enduro range of mountain bikes.

With the all-new Enduro Elite 29/6Fattie, we’re still scratching our heads—is it faster on the way up or the way down? But at this point, we’re kind of like, Who cares? This thing is fun as hell. We gave it a geometry features a slacker front end, a longer top tube, short chainstays, and a lower bottom bracket. All of this together makes the bike truly feel glued to the ground, and the platform is more responsive and capable then ever.

We even added some cool bits, like integrated storage with a SWAT™ Door at the down tube, and made old new again by making a triumphant return to a threaded bottom bracket. To keep the weight down, the frame is constructed with our legendary X-Wing layout with a FACT 9m carbon fibre chassis and M5 alloy rear end. And to ensure top-level performance on the descents, this material choice is greeted by 160mm of plush rear and 160mm front travel, plus a geometry that can be adjusted via a shock extension with a low/high setting. Handling suspension duties out back, meanwhile, is the talk of the town rear shock, the RockShox Monarch Plus with our Rx All Mountain Tune. And for the icing on the cake, we even made this Enduro to be compatible with our 6Fattie Wheel/Tyre system (wheels and tyres not included), so you’ll always be ready for the trail ahead. For the build, this Enduro is packed with drool-worthy gear, like SRAM one- by 11-speed shifting, powerful Code R brakes, hand-built Roval wheels, and a Öhlins RXF 36 fork up front.
