If the HD3 was designed for racers operating at the pointy end of the enduro rankings, then the Mojo 3 Carbon GX Eagle Mountain Bike was designed for the rest of us mere mortals. If you happen to clean the chunkiest runs like they're paper-smooth fire roads, then the HD3 is probably the right ride for you, but if your ambitions and local trail furniture aren't all World Cup extreme, then the Mojo 3 is probably a far more appropriate--and fun--choice. It tempers the extremes that make the HD3 revel in the most apocalyptic terrain in favor of a lighter, more playfully agile chassis that's capable enough to handle everything this side of gravity. Add in the versatility to run both standard 27. 5in and 27. 5+ tires alongside SRAM's work horse, and ever capable 12-speed GX Eagle drivetrain, and you've got a rig that's set to get rowdy in style. The Mojo 3's lively ride starts with the shock tune and DW-Link suspension. Ibis claims it tuned the shock so its initial stroke rides on the "plush" side, but our firsthand experience with the bike proves that generous small bump compliance doesn't take away from the fantastic mid-stroke support that had us airing every trail feature in sight and rocketing up steep climbs with splendid agility. The extra mid-stroke support also allows Ibis to give the bike a low bottom bracket height for superior handling without pedal strikes, a nice characteristic that lets you power up technical climbs without constantly banging your pedals on rocks. It wasn't specifically built as a park bike, but spending a few minutes on it makes it obvious that the Mojo 3 is fully capable of getting rowdy. Ibis describes the shock's tuned ramp-up characteristics as "robust." We describe it as the kind of big-hit confidence that can often be the key element in determining which side of the ragged edge you find yourself on. By outfitting this Mojo 3 with voluminous 2. 6in tires, you'll enjoy confident traction and a deeper travel feel than you might expec...
