Specialized EnduroSL Expert

The Specialized EnduroSL Expert is a mid model in Specialized's line of Enduro full suspension mountain bikes which are designed as a blend of a XC and DH bike. It has an M5 alloy frame with a Custom Fox RP2BV rear shock which features position-sensitive Boost Valve damping and a RockShox Lyrik IS 2-Step 115/160mm-travel fork with 20mm Maxle thru-axle which features external rebound and compression adjust for pitch-perfect descents. The Specialized Command Post 3-position adjustable-height seatpost has a remote lever for on-the-fuly changed to your riding stance. The Avid Elixir R CR SL lightweight hydraulic disc brakes/levers have tool-free reach and adjustable pad contact for great stopping power.  The Custom DT Swiss E4405 26mm wide rims and Competition stainless steel spokes give added strength without added weight and the S-Works Eskar front tire and Specialized Eskar Control give plenty of traction. The Specialized EnduroSL Expert comes in a Ti Pab finish.
