Radon Swoop 10.0 is a 29er enduro bike with 170mm travel at both ends. Carbon front triangle with alloy stays. M, L and XL frame sizes.

Pros
  1. Versatile big rig that doesn’t get bogged down in its travel. Fun, playful ride that’s killer value for money. Radon hasn’t tried to push the boat out with extreme geometry or sizing and as a result the bike is super-easy to ride. Will serve dual duty as a long-travel trail bike.
Cons
  1. Only available in three frame sizes. No water bottle mount. 2020 discounted bikes are sold out.

The Radon Swoop 10.0 may be a bike park crushing machine that can still climb, but doesn't offer the same sensitivity of many competitors.
