Any of you guys in Canada ride one of these? Just wondered if you've tried changing the shock shuttle between the hi and lo bottom bracket, experiences?
Also anybody know what exactly are the difference between the Enduro frame and the SX trail frame besides the shock.
Cheers guys
Keep on showing us how its done!

my buddy went to Specialized 06 launch earlier this year in uk
asked Spec what is difference in frames between Enduro and SX...surely must be beefed up?
nope they said...same frame...different shock to give 7" rear bounce

Thanks Rob, I go on an international forum and get an answer from somebody I already know, I could have asked you next time I'm at Esher Shore.
Thanks buddy
Don't suppose you know much about the shuttles cos the head angles seem a lot slacker than Spesh publish.
By the way my Enduro is an 05 with a DHX Air upgrade from Spesh

the diff is not that much. I have enduro Pro. but with a manitou rear shock so I cant change the shuttle.. but I Noticed it before I did that with how the font handled at slow speeds.

Yeah , I mentioned that on a Uk website that shall remain nameless, the answers I got inferred I was talking cr*p
Changes:
Geometry: Trail versions are shorter, frame materials (S-works uses m5, rest uses A1) A1 is beefier.

you'll also notice the change in the head angle with the two different shock mounts. slacker head angle (i.e. lower number of degrees) is better for steeps and fast, much harder to endo. Steeper head angle for more XC geometry.
The wife runs the slacker head angle for the steeps. Change it and ride it for a few weeks, and then change it back for a few weeks and decide what fits your riding best.
