Average weight for Enduro bikes
If we make a quick analysis of the average weight of an Enduro bike, we get 14.27 kg (31.46 lbs). You will have a greater advantage on climbs if your bike is easier than the average. On descents, however, a heavier bike will give you extra speed.

Overview of components
Fork
The fork installed on this bike is the Fox Performance Elite Float 36 model. The travel on this model is 170mm. Bike forks are perfect to absorb shocks and provide a great riding experience overall. In short, make sure you choose one with a decent fork when you purchase your dream bike.
Rear Shock
The Swoop 9.0 has a rear shock with a travel of 170mm. The model FOX Float DPX2 Performance Elite is the one installed in this bike. Bike rear shocks are a great way to increase comfort on the bike and give you more control when riding on technical trails. In short, a full-suspension bike will give you the smoothest ride possible.
Wheels size
When leaving the production line, the Swoop 9.0 model has 29″ aluminum wheels. These wheels are more forgiving when you go over roots, rocks, bumps, or other obstacles you encounter on your ride. However, 29″ wheels will make your bike react slower to obstacles you may encounter.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Swoop 9.0 comes with Hydraulic Disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes are perfect for mountain biking, road cycling, and commuting. To sum up, you can ride your bike with confidence.
Dropper post
The Radon model is also equipped with a dropper post. A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical. The main benefit of a dropper post is increased safety while riding. As mentioned above, the lever system allows you to quickly move the saddle out of the way when approaching descents or trail obstacles.
