Specialized announces a limited edition Enduro LTD model
Specialized's Enduro gets kitted out with a new spec and a snazzy satin finish
Specialized has put together a LTD version of its 170mm Enduro bike. Built around the existing 6-bar suspension format of Specialized's best enduro mountain bike, the new build gets decked out with some fancy suspension units from Ohlins and a new paint job too.
Specialized has opted for Ohlins RXF38 fork with an enduro friendly 170mm of travel and a twin-tube TTX 18 damper for its Enduro LTD. The rear will be fitted with a TTX 22 coil rear shock which has a custom RX tune to match the Enduro's suspension characteristics. Both the fork and shock feature a wide range of tuning options so riders can dial in the suspension to their preferred characteristic.
The Enduro LTD also gets a sumptuous lick of paint. A Satin Dopio front end is split with a Sand color at the rear that has a Dopio speckled finish to compliment the front.
The rest of the bike is finished with a mechanical SRAM GX drivetrain and Code RSC brakes. Specialized takes care of the Roval Traverse wheelset, 800mm handlebars, and Specialized's Butcher T9 tires.
Bikes will retail for £6,500 and Specialized says that the bikes will be available from the end of May directly from Specialized.com.
