What to expect in this issue

Which is the best enduro bike of 2021? To answer this question, we travelled to Tuscany with 13 of the hottest bikes of the 2021 season in tow. Besides finding an undisputed winner, we also gained a lot of new and exciting insights. But is our test winner really the best bike for everyone?


ENDURO’s and GRAN FONDO’s editors-in-chief aren’t the only two characters in this story to look like they were separated at birth. You can say the same of the OPEN WI.DE. and Yeti SB115. So, where do the similarities end? Can the both share the enjoyment of the Dolomites’ finest with one gravel bike and one mountain bike?


In this bout, two renowned long-travel bruisers go head-to-head in a vicious battle for the title of Bike Park King. Most people would place their bets on the SCOTT Gamber – it is a full-on downhill bike after all. However, the Specialized Kenevo has some tricks up its sleeve… Can the eMTB underdog leave its opponent in the dust? Find out here!


Visible carbon as far as the eye can see: the new Antidote Carbonjack 29 enduro bike makes no secret of its frame material. But does the latest creation from the small Polish boutique brand just look extravagant or can it also deliver solid performance on the trail? One thing we know for sure – the Antidote Carbonjack is anything but boring!


The X in the GIANT Trance X Advanced stands for an extra portion of travel, which should make it extra fun to ride. The all new frame features a new design and is full of exciting details but can the bike deliver on the trail?


27-year-old Josh Lewis is best known for his unique style of technical riding, dubbed jibbing”. He is also an integral part of the infamous 50to01 movement, being a part of the crew from the very beginning. But what is the story behind Josh “Loosedog” Lewis and how did 50to01 grow from a small UK-based crew to the global movement it is today?


#vanlife is a lifestyle: Load her up and let’s get going! Adventurous days rounded off by evenings spent on deckchairs, kicking back with friends around the vans. For the ride antics, who better than Claudi and Roman from BUCKETRIDE to take care of the logistics?
