[First Ride] Specialized Stumpjumper FSR Expert 29"

Jul 2015 · Ian Collins

Specialized did away with EVO models and just has two Stumpy offerings : 150mm/27.5″ & 135mm/29″. The new Stumpjumper was also the first bike to see the SWAT door, a downtube storage compartment that is accessed by way of a trap door under the bottle cage. Inside the downtube you can put
