Enduro21 Verdict
The reality of us spending time on the Varg EX for these two days was to realise the value in being able to ride where you can’t on a gas bike. It matters more in 2025 and this surely was a great ride which could no way have happened on an ICE dirt bike.We also appreciated being able to talk to each other, something we hadn’t really twigged on other Varg rides. But it really stood out on this trail ride and the truth is we all talked a lot. Too much to be honest!
We’ve been trail riding on all kinds of bikes from old single cylinder plodders, big adventure bikes, enduro bikes and mountain bikes and the Varg stands out from the crowd as a new way to hit the trails because it has such good enduro skills.
Quality of the components on the Varg is second to none, particularly in terms brakes and suspension, and having the good stuff fitted made it a blast to ride.
Like we said earlier, it is many bikes all in one. It just so happens to be a good trail bike as well.
