Key Quotes
The Rumor Expert Evo is one of most capable, versatile women’s bikes we’ve had the pleasure of riding.
Flow Mountain Bike logoFlow Mountain Bike
The 650b feels light and nimble, and the 27.5 wheels were better than the old, 29-inch platform, in my opinion. The bike was easier to toss around.

Women are getting after it and riding a variety of trails—our rider feedback reflected a desire to have the Rumor available in both 29 and 650b.

Tested: Specialized Rumor 650b FSR Expert

jan 2016

I’m not, by any stretch, a professional model, and don’t enjoy being in front of the camera for bike photo shoots. Beyond that, photo shoots are a lot of work. You often have to wake up at sunrise to catch the best light.

Shred-ette: Specialized Rumor Expert Evo 29 Reviewed

dec 2014

The empowerment theme is a big one in women’s cycling at the moment. Done well, the range of women’s riding desires and experiences gain visibility, traction and respect. Done badly, conversations descend into debates about product names, colour choices and whether ‘women’s specific’ products are really necessary. The Specialized Rumor Evo 29 rises above debates …

  • Balanced frame design and low standover.

  • A parts selection designed to be ridden hard.

Ladybike tested: The Specialized Rumor

aug 2014 · Klaus

According to the Californians, it will provide “unimaginable trail and adventure fun”…. just for ladies.
