ECA 2026

The GasGas ECA is the alloy half of the brand's enduro range, sitting below the carbon ECC and pairing 170mm of front travel with 160mm out back across a full 29in wheelset. Every build runs Yamaha's PW-X3 motor rated at 85Nm and 250W with a 720Wh Simplo battery, so range and power are identical regardless of which trim you choose. The geometry is squarely modern enduro: a 64 degree head angle, 460mm chainstays on all sizes, and a 445 to 510mm reach span from S to XL.

In the UK the line runs to two builds. The ECA 1 at £4,199 leans on RockShox Domain R and Super Deluxe Select suspension, SRAM DB8 brakes and a 10-speed Tektro drivetrain, with a claimed 25.6kg weight. The ECA 3 at £5,299 is the clear step up, swapping in a FOX Float 38 Factory fork and Float X Factory shock, SRAM Code R brakes, a 12-speed SRAM GX Eagle drivetrain and NEWMEN Evolution A.30 wheels on Schwalbe Magic Mary and Hans Dampf rubber. The £1,100 jump buys higher-tier suspension and a wider-range drivetrain, which makes the ECA 3 the more rounded enduro tool for buyers who want the Factory-level damping.

Sizing is consistent across the range, with a 72 degree seat tube angle and stack climbing gently from 620mm to 634mm. The relatively slack seat angle and long 460mm rear centre point to a descending bias rather than a steep-climbing position, in keeping with the bike's stated enduro intent.
