### Your Voice, Your Trails What if the next mountain bike you buy was actually designed with your feedback? That's the idea behind the ENDURO Reader Survey 2026. It's not just another form to fill out. It's a chance to tell the industry what you really think—and maybe ride away on a brand-new dream bike. When you take part, you're helping shape the future of mountain biking. The questions dig into what you want from future bikes, which components get you stoked, and which ones drive you absolutely mad. It's your chance to sound off. ### Why This Survey Matters This isn't a small poll. It's one of the most representative surveys in the entire bike industry. The feedback you give helps brands build better, safer, and smarter bikes. In short: your opinion shapes what ends up on the trails tomorrow—around the world. And don't worry about privacy. Your data stays private. Responses are used anonymously for statistical analysis only. So you can speak your mind without any strings attached. ### The Prizes: Two Bikes, One Epic Draw We know your time is valuable. That's why we've teamed up with partners to give away two stunning dream bikes with a total value of over $11,000. Here's what's up for grabs: - **Canyon Torque AL 9** – A true gravity machine built for the roughest terrain. Whether it's secret technical trails, massive drops, or endless party laps in the bike park, the Torque swallows it all up thanks to its plush travel and robust aluminum frame. Paired with a no-compromise, high-end spec, this bike is ready for any adventure where things get rowdy. The perfect partner in crime for anyone looking to push their absolute limits on the descents. - **Propain Hugene 3 CF Ultimate** – The brand-new carbon trail bike that's the definition of a perfect all-rounder. Lightning-fast and highly efficient on the climbs, yet playful and incredibly capable on downhills. Thanks to the top-tier Ultimate build, no tuning wish is left unfulfilled. It's the ultimate bike for epic alpine tours, quick after-work trail sessions, and everything in between. ### How to Enter Head straight to the 2026 reader survey. It takes less than 15 minutes to complete. The survey is open until September 21, 2026. That's it. No hoops to jump through. > "I never win anything, but I fill it out every year because I want to see bikes that actually work for real riders." – A previous participant ### What Happens After You Hit Submit Your answers join thousands of others from riders around the globe. The data gets compiled and shared with brands who use it to make decisions about everything from geometry to component specs. It's a direct line from your trail experience to the drawing board. So if you've ever complained about a bike part that failed too soon or wished for a feature that doesn't exist yet, this is your moment. Speak up. Your dream bike might just be the reward. Remember, the survey closes on September 21, 2026. Don't miss your chance to win big and make a difference.
