The Endorphin is our first model that sets the tone for our 6th Generation of bike models to be released in the next year. With a straight top tube design, Enduro bearings on all pivots, and a one-piece link driving the shock, this launch features massive updates, with over 80% of the bike being changed from the outgoing generation.

New Aesthetic

We developed a new frame design that profiles a straight top tube, that not only improves standover clearance but also delivers a fresh modern style.

Flexible Options

Riders can fine tune their fit and preference, with a choice between Dual 27.5 or MX options. Plus there’s multiple build kit options to fit your budget & riding needs.

Expanded Size Range

Designed for fun-sized people ranging in height from 4’11-5’10. It suits riders with smaller inseams, with a new x-small option.

SRAM UDH Compatible

This model features new 157Trail dropouts that are SRAM UDH and transmission compatible. In addition we’ve included a Knolly custom full metal UDH hanger.

Unified Monoblock Rocker Link

Working in collaboration with the lower swing link, this new design provides increased rigidity and it lessens lateral stresses on the shock mount.

PM180

The rear brake mount has been updated to Post Mount 180mm. It’s optimized for bigger rotors with more streamlined adapter hardware.
