About Specialized SX bikes

With a similar amount of suspension travel as the Enduro range bikes the SX Trail is Specialized's aluminium framed 'Gravity' Mountain Bike with 180mm front and rear suspension and a geometry that's designed purely for going downhill. The SX Trail will take on any demanding downhill, jumps and North Shore with confidence but won't be as much fun pedalling back up. For more of an all round bike for pedalling back up as well as blasting down and with a similar amount of suspension travel see Specialized's Enduro range.
