Rieju enters enduro with high-spec MRX450

Rieju_MRX_450_Green.jpgBy relying on proven race components, Rieju is hoping its first serious enduro bike finds an enthusiastic audience. The Spanish company is using the highly praised 449cc five-valve single from a Yamaha WR450F, 50mm Marzocchi Shiver forks and an Öhlins shock. The round things are a combination of Excel, Brembo and Galfer. This all weighs in at a competitive 115kg. It will take more than high-end components to win races, but this is a promising first large-capacity motorcycle from a company hitherto known for its 50 and 125cc offerings.
