The Enduro Comp will chew up and spit out the nasty terrain with ease, and let you take some seriously wild line choices in the process. The spec isn’t the best for the money though. The Enduro has been in Specialized’s line-up for over 20 years and has evolved drastically in that time. This latest model is designed with one thing in mind: going fast.
The Comp model pictured here is the cheapest Enduro that Specialized offers. We put it through its paces to see just how well it compares to not just the S-Works Enduro model we tested late last year, but its similarly priced counterparts.

What do you think to the Specialized Enduro Comp? Should it have won our Enduro Bike of The Year? Or was it a deserved contender?

We cant sell a bike with entry level spec for 4 1/2 grand!

Frame only version might be quite good, but god that thing is overpriced. Must be that blue colour, like a Yeti. The small storage in the bottom tube is super cool.

For those concerned about the NX draivetrain, tell me; when you need to replace your cassette or deraileur do you want to spend hundreds of dollars more for more expensive parts that perform exactly the same? Sure its a bit heavier but the weight difference between NX and GX is ~200grams for the entire kit and costs a lot more. The most important part of any bike is the frame. Every other part can be replaced as it wears/ages and the core spec of this bike is pretty decent i.e. the frame and suspension is good and will last. The brakes could be replaced at the dealer when you buy the bike (my friend did this when he bought his, he changed them out for XT brakes) and the drivetrain is a disposable part.

Best bike I’ve ever been on by far!! I have the elite and it pedals like a trail bike but goes down like a nimble DH bike. Technical climbing is a dream.

Every once in a while I catch one of BikeRadar’s reviews and they never fail to express their absolute love for Whyte. It always comes up. What’s up with that?

Nice review. Built up a frameset with components that I like for cheaper than what specialized offer a full bike. This seems to be a first, as usually building a frameset with similar components would always turns out more expensive, so al the models seems overpriced. Anyway agree fully with your review.

Just bought mine for 6100 all in here in Squamish and this bike rips!! Unbelievable. Got rid of the 2018 s works. This comp destroys the x wing s works in every department. Who cares about nx. It has everything else. Best bike I ever ridden and I usually always go s works or expert. So happy I saved the money and went with the comp. the resale on these bikes are going to be solid considering most shops are all sold out. Get one if you still can . Honestly , these tires for the steep Squamish slabs are amazing. That 2.6 up front has gobs of grip. Did three laps last night of slab riding putting on 22km and no problem with climbing. Got about 700m in of elevation .

The presenter never mentioned his height and it isn't listed in the description. Including it would add some relevance to his frame size choice.

I love that color! Is that available on other models?

I think the price is somewhat justified by all the testing and engineering that has been put into making the suspension platform and the frame. And I can't say that I'm noticing much difference coming from a gx eagle drivetrain and now riding the nx on my new specialized enduro comp. The confidence this suspension platform(and geo) gives is insane. It takes a bit of power to bunny hop this bike, but once you are up to speed you can just charge and boost of natural lips and obstacles on the trail(SO MUCH FUN). The only complaint I have about the comp build is the slow engagement hub. The fork on the other hand is easy to upgrade if you want a better damper.

Great review. This makes me want to save my money and buy this. I'll be interested to see the winner (I think you said this was #2 right?)

Hi! After this Video I couldnt sleep anymore and had to buy it. Could you tell me which Garmin mounting you use for the handlebar? Does it keep the garmin fixed at rough trails? Thanks in advance

I really don't get one thing:why is the Enduro offered only in carbon, and the Demo only in alloy. A both carbon and alloy approach would be so much sensible for average folk
