Eastern Enso Flatland 2016
« on: September 18, 2015, 01:53:27 AM »
Eastern is back after a few years of financial problems.

In there new 2016 lineup of completes the Enso has returned.

It's a "intermediate" level bike that retails for $469.99.

You can probably point out a few negative points like the 1-piece crank, 2.0 tires, or full offset forks... but in all it's very decent and props for Eastern making one of the handful flatland completes available.

Change our the forks, and it's a pretty decent ride. Quite a few flatlanders have switched to tires over 2.0, so I can't argue too much with the tire size.
