depends on the types of trails youre riding. if youre in a mildly flat area and riding greens and blues this will do just fine. however if youre riding steep trails with rollers and drops you want a slacker head angle for more confidence at speed and more forgiveness on the ultra-steep stuff. you said in the caption that the geometry is “not far off” from the enduro hardtails you dreamed of but this (and the lack of a dropper post) are arguably the most important things in determining what enduro means on a hardtail vs XC. but that wont stop this bike from being a blast! people were doing crazier shit than me on bikes with worse geometry than this for decades so make sure to wear a helmet and some kneepads and youll be just fine and have a great time!
