Every test ride says how nice the breaks and suspension are, however nobody is mentioning that only comes with the Premium package!! What I want to know is how this bike will ride without the premium suspension, premium brake and without Enduro pro and all the other fancy upgrade riding modes!!

Yes indeed. Thanks for bringing that to our attention. It has been remedied.

It should read “EVO Telelever front suspension”

The old one is .8 inch.

Don’t believe that 6000 mile valve adjustment is accurate.
Currently double that mileage
