2025 Specialized Stumpjumper Pro:

The real question is will they make another bomb proof alloy version with great components again !

You look like you’re having a lot of fun on that ride. I’d be curious to compare this bike against the new I is ripley/ripmo that is launching. Great review here. 😂

[ytmike]

Would love to see a specialized chisel review on these trails!

[mutleyadamsracing]

Looks great but that model is not in 99.9% of trail riders budget who are looking for a new bike! Canyon and YT offer much better deals on similar bikes.

[kinch]

The shock makes sense... I bottom out my Stumpy Evo the time.

[klaymoon]

Nice review! For the type of ride you did here, don’t you find 2.3” tires a bit too narrow? Personally, I’d love to see 2.6” tires on a Stumpjumper.

I wish they sold that colourway in my country. I really like the mint green one too though. Plus I don't think I would splash out for the Pro model. Expert is good enough for me.

I've found personally that the 140 ish rear travel is about right for almost all situation except for like big bike park stuff...but I never ride that and not into jump lines. Blacks and double blacks...no problem, blues...piece of cake...seems the 30ish lbs bike is the norm for trail bikes. Nice looking bike though, bravo Specialized for making less choices! I also have the Mavens on my bike, they are crazy good, I love having more power then less.

I was waiting patiently for this review....😂

[jemsmay]

How does it compare to the current Hightower? Sounds pretty similar, and I really like the new rear sus design. Very clean and likely lighter and quicker.

I have a 2021 S Works I did not think it would get better. Suspension must be dialed in on all SJs. My 16 S Works 27.5 is a beast on tight trails.

[shawneggers]

Being a short travel guy like myself, did you prefer last year’s stumpy when you factor in weight and price? Also, what made you go from your top fuel to a fuel?

[duffyrides]

How do you compare the Epic Evo to this new stumpy ? I am coming from a Megatower looking for an XC/Trail bike as my analog bike now for more efficiency on the climbs and was about to go with the Epic Evo or an SB120. But now wondering if this new stumpy setup in the high Geo setting might be the best of both ? Is there any overlap between the two bikes having ridden both ?

[A_Floppy_Clock]

Just snagged what I assume is the last s4 22’ stumpjumper comp alloy for 2500. Thinking at this point stumps will be out of my price bracket. It’s like what Chevy did to the Corvette. No longer an everyday man’s bike.

[livefreeandshred]

Good work 👍🏻 Looks like a fun do it all bike.

[LaurentiusTriarius]

I wouldn't say the most iconic Geez. Neither the most generic but somewhere in the middle 😂

[LoamerMTB]

How’s that dropper post insertion depth? Think you would be able to fit a 210 in the S4? Seems like specialized has a tough time figuring that out. Nice review.

[NocSuKow]

I wanna get it but damn my levo sl is sooo fun. What do you think.

[morgandewette]

Hey what would you recommend for a 5’11 /180cm dude looking for a nimble/balanced rig?

[mattmorrison]

Remember when Aluminum was all the rage? Still pretty good imo, I just can't Pony up the money for a carbon mtb
