FIRST LOOK A TOTAL RENEWAL OF THE BRAND IN ENDURO Gas Gas has completely reinvented its iconic Enduro. The new EC/XC demonstrates total commitment to the very highest quality components. With new frame, engine, suspension, geometry and an endless list of new parts. A new Enduro that joins together in one unique formula the greatest reliability, top specs, versatility, easy riding and is mechanically accessible. We present the new EC/XC, a total renovation for Gas Gas in the most demanding off-road speciality: Enduro.
Classical mythology recounts that “after being consumed by fire, the Phoenix was reborn from its own ashes, becoming a dazzling bird of fire with golden and red wings, a symbol of strength, endurance and resurrection...”. The same metaphor of renewal from which “Project Phoenix” from Gas Gas takes its name and has given birth to the new EC/XC. This is a model that embodies the re-launch of the brand with more than three decades of tradition in off-road and high level competition. A brand which takes the best from the past to challenge the present with the power needed to reinvent itself. Gas Gas is proud to present the new Gas Gas EC/XC, its symbol of renewal. An enduro bike that joins together in one unique formula all the ingredients for maximum reliability, top specs, confidence, versatility, easy to ride and mechanically accessible. This is an innovative bike from its very conception, designed around a central backbone frame. A structural element in combination with new geometry and top quality suspension (Kayaba front and back), giving the new Gas Gas weapon lightness and sensitivity in riding. The new Gas Gas EC/XC has been conceived and designed for easy, quick mechanical accessibility, suitable for riders of all levels right across the broad spectrum in the world of enduro, both professional and amateur, thanks to its versatility, power and ease of riding. The new Gas Gas EC/XC has new geometry for a bike with a visibly lighter and narrower shape, only 105 kg, with a greater turn angle. Gas Gas only trusts in the best components for its new enduro. A total commitment to the quality of the bike when taken as a whole reaches the highest peak of excellence thanks to a never-ending list of new parts in both the bike and engine. Amongst the most important, as well as the previously mentioned Kayaba suspension, are the Magura clutch cylinder, the FMF Powercore 2.1 silencer -manufactured exclusively for Gas Gas-, the Kehin PWK 38 carburettor, Excel wheels and Metzeler Six Days tyres, as well as the Nissan brake calipers and cylinders and the NG discs … elements trusted by the big names in each part of the manufacture of competition components.
