When we introduced the Craftworks ENR in 2016, we changed what you could expect from your bike's suspension. Now, in 2019 we're back with the Craftworks ENR V1.1, offering a longer and slacker geometry for more stability, control and speed, without compromising on the most efficient suspension system on the market.
The Craftworks ENR is the world's first accessible all-mountain, 160mm travel, 650b enduro bike built on a substantial rearward axle trajectory, with an optimised dynamic stable pedaling platform. What does that even mean?
Well, since it emerged, rear suspension has been designed to let your bike's rear wheel move vertically, allowing it to travel over obstacles. But bikes hit obstacles in a way that actually requires a rearward trajectory of the wheel to achieve the best suspension performance, something that hasn't been available until now for a whole host of reasons.
Featuring our patented i-track suspension, the ENR V1.1 brings you the most planted, responsive, compliant and playful suspension ever produced.
Climb with more confidence, descend with more traction. Have your cake, and eat it too!
Imagine a long travel design that feels just as soft and plush on big hits, as it does on small bumps. A design that allows for a stable pedal platform, without compromising on suspension performance when it really counts, in the rough stuff. These aspects have always been considered mutually exclusive, no one bike could offer good performance across small bump compliance, big hit performance, and pedal efficiency. That is, until now.
The ENR V1.1 offers GREAT performance across all three - we call this "The Trifecta".
But don't just take our word for it, organise a test ride and make up your own mind.
Available in three epic 27.5" build specifications, or frame-only!
We're taken our build options to the next level, selecting three high quality build specs to not only perfectly suit the ENR, but also to suit a range of wallet thicknesses.
Spec-I brings incredible value, without compromising on SRAM and Rockshox quality, even coming with NX Eagle 12speed.
Spec-II takes things to a whole new level with a super slick Cane Creek suspension fit out, Formula Cura brakes and GX Eagle.
Spec-III, for those die hard Rockshox fans, offers upgraded Rockshox suspension, GX Eagle and SRAM Guide RS brakes.
All our bikes are fitted with Spank cockpit and wheelsets to finish them off, because it's the little things that make all the difference to how you feel on your bike!
Not everyone wants their bike built the way we like it, though. That's why we offer Frame-Only options too. Buy the frame and build it up yourself, the way you want it. But just make sure you send us a photo, it kinda makes our day!
We pioneered it, then we improved it.
We didn't just change the design, we changed what can be expected of your bike's suspension. The world's first truly accessible, rearward trajectory axle path on a bike specifically built for Enduro Racing.
Small-bump compliance, big hit performance.
Because of i-track's patented rearward axle trajectory, the ENR's suspension has better small-bump compliance early in its travel without compromising big-hit performance, as is the case with conventional suspension designs.
Long travel and pedal efficiency can co-exist.
Just because the ENR is built for the roughest conditions enduro racing has to offer, doesn't mean it's not perfect for the weekend trail junkee. We've built a bike that is just as at home on the descents as it is on the climbs, thanks to a stable pedal platform delivered through it's oblique compression angle during pedaling and pumping. This means your i-track suspension is working with you, all the time.
Plush and planted, nimble and playful.
The ENR's patented i-track suspension takes care of the hard work, so you can focus on negotiating the trail. Smooth through the chattery corners, free of "hang ups" just like a soft suspension setup, but with the nimble, re-activeness of a stiffer setup when you need it. It's the best of both worlds.
Customer Service is at the heart of everything we do.
Protecting your investment is paramount to us, and we believe this begins with you knowing we're right here, and available to answer your questions - not some random dude on the end of the phone, but the owners and designers of Craftworks. So don't be shy, we're here to help!
What our customers say
Chris JenkinsThe ENR is such dialled bike! The rearward axle path not only means that the bike maintains its momentum over sharp hits, but also creates more stability the tougher the terrain gets. It’s an addictive sensation, to have a bike that feels more comfortable the harder and faster you push it. With the new model on its way early 2019, I can’t wait to swing a leg over it. I'm so amped on this bike!
Joel WooleyI tell you what, despite having only set the sag on the rear shock and leaving the rest untouched this thing is an absolute joy to ride. I'll be dialing in some better manners for the truly gnarly terrain but credit goes to you guys, you've designed and built a true masterpiece of a bike.
Julian HowardI've had quite a few carbon bikes that plow through the rough terrain, but in no way have they stood up to the same punishment I've dealt to my ENR. I stripped the ENR for the first time this week after one and half years, bearings are holding up, creaks are gone and it rides like new again. If you want something that can slap down a rock garden, can hang air, climbs well and flicks through the tech sections, then won't bitch and moan, get around an ENR.
Beyond The Tape PodcastIf you want a bike that pedals better than Lance Armstrong on the gear, Pumps harder than Arnie in the 70's, and Skips over the rough stuff faster than a politician, than the ENR is for you. Fast. Nimble, and smooth are the three words needed to describe this bike
