The Enduro Build gets a suspension overhaul, now with a 140mm travel 44mm offset Fox Factory 36 fork with GRIP2 damper, and a custom tune Factory DPX2 shock.

The 10mm increase in fork travel will slacken the head angle by around 0.5 degrees from its previous 67.3 degrees, and the decreased fork offset will increase the trail measurement to improve steering stability.
