Developed for the Enduro World Cup, the HD6 is incredibly quick on the trail when you want it to be, while a light overall weight and balanced angles help keep it easy to ride when the speeds drop and the trails tighten.
Built around mixed wheels with a 180mm fork and 165mm rear travel it could easily be your go to bikepark bike, able to take on any track in the UK but it’s capable of far more than that. Suspended on the legendary DW Link platform, it strikes an amazing balance between efficiency and traction and at under 33 pounds in weight it’s far less of a chore to climb on than most other enduro machines, meaning big days are every bit as possible as uplift laps.
All the build kits put your money where it really counts, with every model running SRAM Code RSC brakes and a full Fox Factory suspension package along with lifetime warranty on the frame and rims. That simply means that you’ve got both brilliant backup and descending performance no matter which HD6 you choose.
