The Oso doesn’t just lean into enduro territory. It drops in, elbows out and goggles down. The long wheel base, roomy cockpit and slack 64-degree head angle are designed for optimal racing performance. And its size-specific seat angles allow riders of any height to bang out climbs in comfort without wasting a watt.
Large and extra large Oso frames are built around matching 29-inch wheels, while small and medium frames get the mixed-wheel treatment and shorter chainstays. That keeps the Oso from ever feeling unwieldy. In fact, it’s pretty damn wieldy.
The Bosch Performance line CX has a quiet, powerful 85 NM drive unit, which offers the most natural feeling acceleration since the invention of gravity. On top of that, you get Bosch’s two-year warranty, a network of 2,400 dealers across the U.S., UL safety certified batteries, and its carbon neutral operations. So, in case you were wondering, that’s why we went with Bosch.
