Summary

The Specialized Stumpjumper excels as a versatile cross-country bike, praised for its playful and fun handling that inspires confidence on various trails. Its supple suspension and balanced geometry provide a smooth ride, while innovative features like the SWAT storage system add practicality. However, some reviews note issues with tire performance in mud and a tendency for the rear shock to rush through travel on big hits.

Pros
  • Playful and fun handling

  • Supple suspension performance

  • SWAT storage system

  • Excellent traction on climbs

  • Balanced and predictable geometry

Cons
  • Tires can be bouncy and perform poorly in mud

  • Rear shock may rush through travel on big hits

  • Low bottom bracket leads to pedal strikes

  • Slightly sluggish compared to bikes with regular tires

Key Quotes
It’s a bike that works in harmony with all its angles and travel, never seeming like it’s too much or not enough of anything.

the 6fattie is the most fun I have ever had on a mountain bike
Dirt Mountainbike logoDirt Mountainbike
Supple suspension, tacky tyres and a sweet balance of slack and sharp – the Stumpy rules the trails.
Flow Mountain Bike logoFlow Mountain Bike
The Stumpjumper has a really lively, playful feel on descents, and rides with great agility even with those chubby tires.

Specialized S-Works Stumpjumper review

Dec 2017 · Christoph Bayer

Anyone who thinks that the Specialized S-Works Stumpjumper is getting a bit old-fashioned is wrong! With Öhlins suspension all around and revised SWAT integration, the bike is better than ever – but is that enough to beat the competition?

Apr 2017 · Paul Burwell

The Specialized Stumpjumper 29 is a great trail bike – the suspension offers grip, the Yari fork is stiff and it has unique features like Autosag and SWAT.

Tested: Specialized Stumpjumper FSR Expert 6Fattie

Oct 2016

The main question to ask ourselves is … why? Why do we ride? Why do you ride? Why spend so much of your hard-earned money on bikes and gear? Why not just hop on your old steel klunker and head out for hours and hours of ripping up our favorite techy singletrack?
