Overview
About this bike
In enduro events, you win the race based on your total descent time over multiple stages, so the logic of building GT's Sanction enduro bike based on a championship-winning gravity bike was obvious. With a weight saving tube set inspired by the Fury's design and 165mm of travel, the Sanction is a winning recipe. The young Enduro phenom Martin Maes had tremendous input into the Sanction's design and the resulting ride qualities. The Sanction devours technical descents with a RockShox Yari fork and Monarch Debonair shock that team up to provide highly adjustable suspension dynamics for race-day fine-tuning. The Schwalbe Magic Mary tires keep you on your line, and they're wrapped around WTB rims for hit-taking durability with remarkable low weight. You need a significant gear range to excel at enduro, and SRAM's GX drivetrain, powered by you and a Race Face crankset, will help you push ahead of the pack. But, you still need control to make it down each stage, and SRAM's Guide R brakes are there to make sure your stopping distance is as short as your stage splits. Enduro demands a dynamic machine, and the Sanction has what it takes to master the entire mountain.
