In this video Graham mentions the biggest thing you can do to transform the bike is tires and mousse's for soft feel and traction. He mentions that they can't run trials tires, but he likes them for Enduro use.
Below are some Amazon Afilliate links to Graham's tires of choice: the Goldentyre 216 and mousses for Hard Enduro

I love how Graham's set up is pretty straightforward and he has answers to match...not much to it. Bottom line: It's not so much the bike, but the rider. Practice practice, fellas.

Graham Jarvis is the Yoda of Enduro. He can talk / instruct from now till eternity but he has something us mere mortals do not possess. Incredible balance and motor skills that defy logic. It isn't the bike, it's him. First step to even try to ride like Graham is to master the ability to balance the bike standing still with the engine off. Until you can do that no farkle on the planet will help you ride better....

I love how he doesnt have any crazy formula for the perfect bike setup, he seems to not even know much about it. It all comes down to the riders skills and technique, he could probably get on almost any bike and blow the competition out of the water simply because his skills are unmatched. Moral of the story, theres no shortcuts for being a great rider, only hard work and practice practice practice.

@@PrimalEnduro Just heard Billy Bolt mention in one of his blogs that Graham runs his suspension very soft, softer than everyone else. And prefers the lowest gearing possible, something like 12/52.
