Specialized’s Stumpjumper Evo Expert is a lightweight carbon daily driver with downhill geometry, but does that work on the trail?
Rad-to-mad geo and shock adjustment
Excellent suspension control
On-point frame feel
Decent weight
SWAT
Practical, protective details
Sorted kit package
Full size range
Power phase is soft in open mode
S-Works frame is a lot more cash for just a 35g weight saving
Tires are dry biased
Shorter stem please

A fantastically versatile bike that’s most at home when pointing downhill
Impressive descending prowess with great feeling suspension and dialled geometry
It can climb just as well as it descends
Top-level spec performs as it should
Very expensive

We’ve seen a number of captivating launch videos lately. Everything from edits packed with incredible riding, to cinematic masterpieces. Looking to produce something worthy of their new Stumpjumper EVO, Specialized just took things to another level with a video simply called The Stumpjumper EVO. It makes you wonder – is this really the golden age of mountain biking?

The new Stumpjumper EVO gets a little more travel and a lot more adjustable. There's also extra snack space.
Wide range of effective adjustments that can quickly transform how the bike feels.
Light weight, allows for burly components to be installed without turning it into a tank
Well sorted frame - clever, useful features.
The price of this one is going to be a con for most people, but keep in mind that there are other more affordable models that are still well spec'd
It could use an even longer travel dropper, but there's not an AXS post longer than 170mm.

The Specialized Stumpjumper EVO has comparatively little travel but tries to compensate for this deficit with its extreme geometry.
Confidence inspiring in the steep terrain
Agile handling despite the extreme geometry
Good climbing characteristics
Looks
Slack setting is too low
Suspension quickly reaches its limits
Very niche

A few months back we published a head-to-head comparison of the Specialized Stumpjumper (classic) and Stumpjumper ST (short travel). Back then, the Californian brand had released their long, low, and slack Stumpy EVO in an aluminum version, but we knew a carbon fiber iteration was brewing and couldn’t wait to try one. For the last few weeks, we’ve been ripping around some of the steeper local trails to see how it fared… Details FACT 11m full carbon fiber frame 27.5″ wheels 160mm front travel /150mm rear travel / 160mm seatpost travel Metric rear shock spacing – 210×52.5mm 37mm offset fork FSR suspension

Specialized Stumpjumper EVO Comp Alloy 29 is a totally different beast. It's not a regular Stumpjumper that has a longer-travel fork and beefier tyres.
