    Noob question regarding enduro walking: I read that pedaling is a lot more efficient than walking since there is much less up and down bobbing. Is it really easier to walk up than to ride up, at the easiest gear and a similar pace?

      That defeats the whole purpose of enduro. It’s basically multiple downhill races in a day. The climb is just to wear you out and get you to the top for the actual race. XC riders don’t stand a chance in a real enduro race. I don’t think you’ve seen a real enduro race if you think XC riders on their tiny bikes can beat real enduro racers on their buffed out race rigs.

      hmmm enduro king here in our area is road racing,xc champion too. he even playing enduro cross.
      and he even say ,to save energy do not push the bikes up hill it will drain your stamina.
      if the climb is not that steep. pedal it uphill to recover.
      why call it enduro in the first place if theres no endurance involved 🤣🤣
      you can't test your endurance by just down hill.
      you just need your skills.
      so basically enduro race is just a downhill race.cause climb is not counted as part of it.

    It went together easily in less than an hour. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Make sure the front fork is forward or the pedals will hit the front tire. Tires are both a little soft so it needs air before I ride it. The rear wheel didn't come with a clamp regular bolts hold it on. The front had the clamp. No scratches out of box. Rims are a little off with a slight wobble. They could have spent more time with the spoke tool fixing the run out. So far out of the box I'm happy with it. I did replace the pedals with a nice aftermarket set. After riding it a bit my A$$ is a bit sore so I ordered another seat. Overall I'm nearly 60 and didn't ride a bike in 30 years. I like my new 29" Schwinn. It will be used for casual rides with my friend.
