If you can play Polo on a horse, why can’t you play golf on a emtb?
You can .. If you're a golfer using an MTB for mobility and not an MTBer using a golf course as an Enduro course ..

I like the driver used as a side stand .. Alas, they're throttle assisted as Golf is just a way to ruin a nice walk .. So with throttle assist, it avoids the quandary of Golf being accused of ruining a nice cycle.

Coil suspension, so even carlbiker can play.

Fat fat FAT tyres are a must though - these would scare most fat bikers .. Don't want to ruin the ground - another reason MTB's aren't appreciated.

As you can see, both of these guys were tricked into playing with superglue before the picture was taken.

The positive side, being a bit cooler, is that it attracts more women into the sport

Which in turn, attracts more men into the sport . Which means clubs can charge higher memberships.

It's a bit like superglue, well, it'll stick eyelashes together anyway...

There is this one too :

Shimano Nexus 3 Speed gear with an internal rear brake.

Powerful 350 Watt front hub motor.

36 volt, 11.6 AH bike lithium battery pack.

I would say it's Wheelie good, but cunning use of a front hub motor sorts that one out ..

Pretty safe to say you'd be banned at most clubs with those tyres, but things must be a bit different in SA.

Well, it's far from being finished but so far I'm admiring the S-Works Enduro.
I had to whip out my 2017 Comp and 2nd Kenevo in an effort to get the bike set up nicely.
I'm pleased that I can run a 210 34.9 OneUp dropper slammed into the frame, knowing that at full height I get the maximum leg extension. @apac, you were right. I've opted not to run the shim due to the shim length ??
My Magura brakes will go on the S-Works Enduro (although I was partially tempted to nab the Codes of my 1st Kenevo and slap the MT7s on that).
Drivetrain is subject to availability (trying my best not to buy Sram cranks as I'm sick and tired of losing the bloody Dub bolts).
Finishing touches will probably be what I use on both the Enduro Comp and 2nd Kenevo,
1. Bontrager Line 35 820mm bars
2. DMR Defy stem 35/50
3. ODI Elite Pro Grips.
4. Nukeproof Neutron Evo Pedals
5. Crud Guard XL

Haven't decided on tyres at this point but I'm really liking the Magic Mary/Big Betty combo. It actually works on a regular mtb as I'm running them on the Enduro Comp (Your next Status 160 ?).

Gotta give a huge shout out for the guidance of both @Gary & @RustyIron for their helpful tips as well (your advice didn't fall on death ears).

Apologies for the lousy pics. I'll try to take better ones in due course.

I'll say this (even though it's not fully built) the S-Works Enduro is noticeably lighter than any of my other mtbs (Even with the upgraded Ohlins TTX Coil).

Anywho, cheers again guys ??

Well, you gotta start somewhere.
Probably a good thing I tried it on a regular bike before experimenting on an eebs.

are SR suntour forks making some kind of comeback ?
back in the day, suntour was only on the very shittiest of bikes.. but I keep seeing them.
Sorry @dobbyhasfriends, cant answer you mate.
I think like most things, its reputation which determines a products value.
Like DVO. I don't see too many riders rocking DVO suspension in the UK but everyone who has tried it has good things to say about the OTT (Of The Top).
