SignedAnnounced 5 November 2026

Now raced by Graham Jarvis.

Arctic Leopard has signed Graham Jarvis, one of the most decorated riders in hard enduro. Hard enduro is the toughest test there is for a bike: steep climbs, rock gardens, mud and hours of punishment.

Having a pro rider put the bikes through that gives every Arctic Leopard owner something no spec sheet can: proof that it holds up.
