Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to the nest line of suspension bikes available!
About this Manual
This manual is designed to be used in conjunction with the Bicycle Owner’s Manual and owner’s manuals supplied by the manufacturer of the front and rear suspension components. If you did not receive any of these manuals, download them from the Internet, contact your dealer, or contact us by telephone. There may be more current manuals and technical information available. For the most current information , regularly check the Specialized web site or consult your Specialized dealer. These manuals were written for an important reason: your safety while riding.
This manual contains many “Warnings” and “Cautions” concerning the consequences of failure to maintain or inspect your bicycle or of failure to follow safe cycling practices. The combination of the safety alert symbol and the word Warning indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death. The combination of the safety alert symbol and the word Caution indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury, or damage to your bicycle or a component. Because the consequences of not following a Warning usually include “you may lose control and fall,” which could result in serious personal injury or death, we may not repeat this in conjunction with each Warning. Because it is impossible to anticipate every situation or condition which may occur, a practice or situation may be unsafe but not anticipated by this manual. So, don’t forget to use your common sense.
Warning: Make sure you have, review, and understand the warnings, instructions, and content of the manuals for your bicycle.
About Off Road, Stunt, Downhill and Freeriding
Downhill racing, severe off road riding, jumping, and stunt riding is extremely dangerous. Some downhill racers and freeriders reach speeds similar to motorcycles, thus face similar risks and hazards.
When engaging in these activities, you, your bicycle and safety equipment must be in perfect condition. We recommend that at all times you wear appropriate safety gear, such as an approved full face helmet, full nger gloves, and body armor.
Not every bicycle is built for every activity. Check with your Specialized dealer to make sure you have the right equipment.
No bicycle is indestructible. Downhill racing, severe off road riding, jumping, and stunt riding increases the stress on every part of your bicycle. Frames or parts under high stress may fail, causing you
to lose control or fall. Because of the risk involved, Specialized recommends that you conduct a thorough inspection before each ride. If you miss a jump, ditch your bike in mid crash, dump or launch your bike without you on it, inspect yourself for injury, then carefully inspect your bicycle for damage.
Here is what you should look for when you inspect your bicycle for this type of riding: bent or broken components, such as the handlebar, handlebar stem, seatpost, pedals; dents, cracks, scratches,
deformation, or discoloration. Because damage may be internal and hidden, if any of these signs are present, stop riding until your bicycle has been thoroughly inspected by your Specialized dealer.
Warning: Although many catalogs, advertisements and articles about bicycling depict riders racing, jumping, riding hard off road, and/or stunt riding, this activity is extremely dangerous, increases the rider’s risk of injury or death, and potentially increases the severity of any injury. The action depicted is being performed by experts with many years of training and experience. Even with that training and experience, cyclists who engage in such activity often get seriously injured. It is also foreseeable that some jumps or stunts, and even during some races, that the rider will exceed the design capacity of the frame or components, which may result in something on the bicycle bending or breaking. If a frame or component bends or breaks, such may lead to loss of control, serious personal injury or death.

As activities such as racing, jumping, severe off road riding, and stunt riding are extremely dangerous, SAFETY should always be the rst consideration. Don’t ride in the race, ride hard off road, try the jump, or do the stunt, UNLESS YOU CAN DO SO SAFELY. Here are some additional recommendations:
• Take lessons from a competent instructor rst.
• Do jumps or stunts only in areas designated for this type of riding.
• Start with easy jumps and easy stunts rst, and slowly develop skills before trying more dangerous jumps or stunts.
• Wear appropriate safety gear, such as a full face helmet, body armor, full nger gloves.
• Make sure by checking with your dealer that your bike is suitable for the kind of activity you intend to engage in.
• Constantly inspect your bicycle for signs of stress: cracks in the paint; dents; crushing or bending of the frame; bent components. Do not ride your bicycle if it shows such signs of stress.
• Do not seek to bend or break the frame or components. Remember, SAFETY FIRST!!!
• Understand and recognize that the stresses imposed on your bike by riding at speed, jumping or stunt riding may break or damage parts of the bicycle, which may result in loss of control, serious injury or death.
Specialized does not warrant the bicycle frame or components for such activities, and expressly disclaims all warranties, including the warranty of tness for particular purpose and merchantability.
Stunt riding, severe off road riding, jumping, or riding downhill at speed is extremely dangerous, and the rider voluntarily assumes the risk that the bicycle frame and/or its components will bend or break, and voluntarily assumes the risk of injury or death.
Service and Modications
Technological advances have made bicycles and bicycle components more complex, and the pace of innovation is increasing. It is impossible for this manual or the accompanying manuals to provide all the information required to properly repair and/or maintain your bicycle. In order to help minimize the chances of an injury, it is critical for you to have work performed by an authorized Specialized retailer.
Warning: Service on Specialized bicycles requires special knowledge and tools. Specialized recommends that all service and repairs be performed by an authorized Specialized retailer.
Your bicycle has been engineered and tested with specic components and parts. Because of the great variety in these items, it is impossible for Specialized to test and approve of all possible combinations. Modifying the frame, fork, or any of the components may make your bike unsafe. For example, changing the front suspension on your bicycle may alter the steering characteristics and/or add stresses to the frame which have not been tested for. If you must replace any component, have this done by your authorized Specialized retailer.
Warning: Never modify your frame or bicycle in any way. Do not sand, drill, ll, or remove parts. Do not install incompatible forks or suspension parts. An improperly modied frame, fork, or component, can cause you to lose control and fall.
Caution: Any modication of your frame, fork, or components means that your bike no longer meets our specications and therefore voids your warranty.

SEAT POST SETUP
SEATPOST MINIMUM EXTENSION: All Specialized full suspension models with interrupted seat tubes have a small hole to identify the minimum extension allowed for your seatpost. If you cannot see the seatpost tube through this hole, your seatpost is too far extended. If a greater saddle height is required, replace the seatpost with a longer one.

ENDURO MODELS
On 2002-2004 Enduro models, the interrupted seat tube design is NOT equipped with a seat post insertion limiting stop at the base of the seat tube which allows for a wide range of adjustment for extension and insertion to accommodate certain types of terrain and riding styles.
Warning: Read the following instructions on proper seat post adjustment before riding your Specialized Enduro. Failure to follow these instructions can result in damage to the equipment and rider.
SEATPOST MINIMUM INSERTION: The frame design allows the seat post to be lowered below the base of the seat tube. While this allows a wider range of adjustment, it also
makes the shock vulnerable to damage due to contact from the edge of the seat post if lowered too far. Avoiding contact between the seatpost and shock is also important to achieve proper suspension function.
To help protect the rear shock from impact damage, a small rubber bumper is included. This bumper is to be placed on the shock body where it would intersect with the seatpost if it were lowered to the shock. This will help to protect the shock from damage and maintain proper suspension function.

NOTE: Using travel chips limits the stroke and travel of the shock. A shorter stroke/travel requires a stiffer spring to compensate so that the shock doesn’t bottom out. The Enduro SX comes stock with 2 travel chips, which provides 3.5” travel.
NOTE: Spring weights listed above are to be used as an adjustment starting point only. Rider weight and riding style may require a different spring rate than the stock spring rate. Replace the spring accordingly. Refer to your shock manufacturer’s manual for additional shock setup information.
2 travel chips: Stock spring. 1 travel chip: Stock spring, or test with 50lb lighter spring if exceeding spring preload range. 0 travel chips: Test with 50 lb lighter spring.

LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY ON BICYCLE FRAMES AND FRAMESETS
Subject to the following limitations, terms and conditions, Specialized warrants to the original owner for the lifetime of the original owner of each new Specialized bicycle or frameset that the bicycle frame or frameset when new is free of defective materials and workmanship. The lifetime limited warranty is conditioned upon the bicycle being operated under normal conditions and use, and properly maintained. This limited warranty does not apply to paint/nish or components attached to the bicycle/frameset such as front forks, wheels, drive train, brakes, seatpost, handlebar and stem or any suspension related parts or components. Paint/nish, components attached to the bicycle/ frameset such as front forks, wheels, drive train, brakes, seatpost, handlebar and stem or any suspension related parts or components are covered under the limited one (1) year warranty.

LIMITED ONE (1) YEAR WARRANTY ON COMPLETE BICYCLE
Subject to the following limitations, terms and conditions, Specialized warrants to the original owner of each new Specialized bicycle that this bicycle when new is free of defective materials and workmanship.

This warranty is void if the bicycle was not purchased new from or not properly assembled by an authorized Specialized dealer.
LIMITED ONE (1) YEAR WARRANTY ON SUSPENSION ATTACHMENTS & SUSPENSION RELATED EQUIPMENT
Also subject to the following limitations, terms and conditions, Specialized warrants to the original owner of each new Specialized bicycle or frameset that the suspension attachment points, and suspension related equipment (including pivot points, bushings, shock units, front suspension forks, stays, plates, fasteners) when new are free of defective materials or workmanship.

ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
This Limited Warranty is made only to the original owner of this new Specialized bicycle or frameset purchased from an authorized Specialized dealer, and it shall remain in force only as long as the original owner retains ownership of the Specialized bicycle. This Limited Warranty is not transferable. In order to exercise your rights under this limited warranty, the bicycle or frameset must be presented to an authorized Specialized dealer, together with a receipt, bill of sale or other appropriate written proof of purchase which identies the bicycle or frameset by serial number. Should this bicycle, frameset or any part be determined by Specialized to be covered by this warranty, it will be repaired or replaced, at Specialized’s sole option, which will be conclusive and binding. The original owner shall pay all labor charges connected with the repair or replacement of all parts. Under no circumstances does this limited warranty include the cost of travel or shipment to and from an authorized Specialized dealer. Such costs, if any, shall be borne by the original owner. This limited warranty does not apply to normal wear and tear, nor to claimed defects, malfunctions or failures that result from abuse, neglect, improper assembly, improper maintenance, alteration, collision, crash or misuse. This warranty is null and void if the bicycle is used for racing, trick riding, ramp riding, jumping, riding hard off road, aggressive riding, riding on severe terrain, riding in severe climates, riding with heavy loads, commercial activities or similar activities. Such use may damage the bicycle, can cause serious personal injury or death, and in all cases void this warranty.

USEFUL PRODUCT LIFE CYCLE
Every Specialized bicycle and frameset has a useful product life cycle. The length of that useful product life cycle will vary with the construction and materials of the bicycle or frameset, the maintenance and care the bicycle or frameset receives over its useful product life cycle, and the type and amount of use the bicycle or frameset is subject to. Uses in competitive events, trick riding, ramp riding, jumping, aggressive riding, riding on severe terrain, riding in severe climates, riding with heavy loads, commercial activities and other types of non-standard use can dramatically shorten the useful product life cycle of a Specialized bicycle or frameset. Any one or a combination of these conditions may result in an unpredictable failure of a Specialized bicycle or frameset that would not be covered by this warranty. ALL SPECIALIZED BICYCLES AND FRAMESETS SHOULD BE PERIODICALLY CHECKED BY AN AUTHORIZED SPECIALIZED DEALER for indicators of stress and/or potential failure, including cracks, deformation, corrosion, paint peeling, dents, and any other indicators of potential problems, inappropriate use, or abuse. These are important safety checks and very important to help prevent accidents, bodily injury to the rider and shortened useful product life cycle of a Specialized bicycle or frameset.
Special Note regarding Composite Frames and Components: Composite materials develop their strength and maintain strength only if the integrity of the part is fully maintained. Pay special attention to, and periodically and carefully inspect composite frames and components for signs of dents, fraying, gouging, scratches, fracture lines, chipping. In the event of a crash or serious impact, or if any of the foregoing signs are observed, the component and frame should not be ridden until inspected by an Authorized Specialized Dealer. For your safety, Specialized recommends replacing composite handlebars after three years of use.
THIS IS AN INTEGRATED AND FINAL STATEMENT OF SPECIALIZED’S LIMITED WARRANTY. SPECIALIZED DOES NOT AUTHORIZE OR ALLOW ANYONE, INCLUDING ITS AUTHORIZED DEALERS, TO EXTEND ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, FOR SPECIALIZED. NO OTHER REPRESENTATION, AND NO STATEMENT OF ANYONE BUT SPECIALIZED, INCLUDING A DEMONSTRATION OF ANY KIND BY ANYONE SHALL CREATE ANY WARRANTY REGARDING THIS BICYCLE OR FRAMESET. ALL OF THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER ARE STATED HEREIN. IT IS AGREED THAT SPECIALIZED’S LIABILITY UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY SHALL BE NO GREATER THAN THE AMOUNT OF THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE PRICE AND IN NO EVENT SHALL SPECIALIZED BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
DISCLAIMER
All other remedies, obligations, liabilities, rights, warranties, express or implied, arising from law or otherwise, including but not limited to, any claimed implied warranty of merchantability, any claimed implied warranty arising from course of performance, course of dealing or usage of trade, and any claimed implied warranty of tness, are disclaimed by Specialized and waived by the original owner. Some states, jurisdictions, countries, provinces, do not allow some or all of the limitations set forth herein, or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages. If any provision is found unenforceable, only that provision shall be stricken and all others shall apply. This limited warranty does provide the original owner with certain legal rights and recourse and the original owner may possess other rights or recourse, depending on the state, jurisdiction, country or province.
