Specialized S Works Enduro 27.5" XX1 Eagle Carbon Suspension MTB 2017

We gave it a whole new geometry, with a slacker front end, a longer top tube, even shorter 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 brand new bits, like integrated storage with a SWAT (TM) 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 from our top-tier FACT IS-X 11m carbon fiber. And to ensure top-level performance on the descents, this material choice is greeted by 170mm of plush travel at both the front and rear.

And handling suspension duties out back is the revolutionary Ohlins single tube rear shock. For the build, this Enduro spares no expense at hitting the pinnacle of performance, with a full SRAM XX1 Eagle 12-speed groupset, powerful Guide RS Carbon brakes, hand-built carbon Roval wheels, and our Command Post IRcc dropper post. Make the mountain bend to you.

The frame's FACT IS-X 11m carbon fiber construction stands as the pinnacle of lightweight, efficient, and tough trail performance. It's been built off our 650b Geometry in order to provide an aggressive, well-rounded ride. And with internal Command Post IR routing, a return to a threaded bottom bracket, and an integrated SWAT (TM) Door at the down tube, you get a bike that's clean, dependable, and ready for anything that the trail has to offer.

A RockShox Lyrik RCT3 fork puts out a massive 170mm of plush travel. It has all of the features the trail demands, like a 15mm Maxle Stealth thru-axle, the RCT3 Charger Damper, and stiff 35mm Fast Black upper tubes. The one-by drivetrain is controlled by SRAM's venerable XX1 Eagle components.

The system forms the ultimate in efficiency and intuitive feel, while also having the added benefit of significant weight savings and minimal required maintenance.
