Having stamped his authority as the winner of the first round of the European Enduro Series, Redbull sponsored athlete Michal Prokop gave us a quick look at his race weapon, a fully custom Specialized Carbon Enduro.

Behind we have a SRAM XX1 cassette and derailleur.
Formula provide the brakes on the other side, RO.
A pair of Shimano DX pedals are fitted to a nameless custom 32T crank set and ring,
The Enduro has enough space to accomodate a Cane Creak Double Barel air shock and water bottle. The linkages are all normal.
For racing Michal carries his tube and gas canister here, lucky for him he didn’t have to use it.

His Formula brakes and SRAM XX1 shifter are mounted on the same mount, which can’t be done with Shimano. He has customized grips from Odi.
Michal uses a Spank 777 bar and 50mm stem combo.
On the left is his LEV Intergra seat post control and the race timing chip is attached to the bar.
Up front Michal is using a Formula 35 fork 170mm of travel.
A spank h200 wheel set is combined with a 203mm Formula disc up front.
Michal uses Kenda Honey Badger tires tubeless front and rear.
Michal has his brakes set so this is the bite point on the bar, a fairly medium set-up.
