A trail bike these days is a light framed enduro. I would have said downhill but the gearing would be a killer on the ups.

Today an enduro bike is a downhill bike with "short" travel fork. Good for descent but very hard to climb. A Trail bike is more like 4x4. Is more real for everything.

@@kevinburke1325 Not exactly false. This whole thing of XC and Enduro and all mountain are honestly just disciplines of racing but used by bike corporations as labels to sell average people a bike. An XC now can handle an enduro trail. Enduro bikes can race in an XC race (demonstrated by Anna). All mountains bikes can race in Enduro. So it's all just smoke and mirrors. Just buy a good bike and get out on your local trails or races!

I did a short Enduro on a marathon bike. Had riding those trails before. Had no problem with it. More suspension would have been great. I think you can do most things on any bike as long as you have slightly longer travel.

That looked brutal so massive props to Anna for getting through it and taking the win! In terms of bike choice from my entirely novice point of view those trails looked so tight and twisty that I'd have thought a 140-150mm bike would be struck a nice balance. A big, slack enduro bike would have been challenging to get round a lot of those corners especially in the wet with reduced traction. Throw in the energy used getting up to speed after each slow turn and I'd have thought it would have really drained a person after a couple of days?
