2022 Specialized Stumpjumper Evo Expert RS Mountain Bike

With 150 mm of travel, this modern-day trail-eating machine will take you further and faster than you ever thought possible. Built with a carbon frame and modern geometry, this Stumpjumper is a precise, nimble bike that also happens to be floaty and freeridey when you want it to be. This 150 mm seems to be the sweet spot these days for riders who do a mix of cross-country pedaling and enduro downhilling. By blending uphill efficiency with downhill confidence and control, riders get the best of all situations. Specialized takes care of the little things, too, like the SWAT door integration, high-power disc brakes, an upper-tier componentry build, and smooth-rolling 29-inch wheels and tires. If you’re looking to put a bunch of miles on your bike this upcoming year, and are looking to mix it up with some technical terrain along the way, this bike is equal parts floaty and responsive.
