Bike Check 2022 Specialized Stumpjumper S-Works

My daily trail bike, a 2022 Specialized Stumpjumper S-Works.

Nice bike, I noticed the Dirtskirt😊. I ordered a Stumpy myself here in Switzerland and I build it with a White frame 😁

[@IamRolling]

Oh nice!

[@TurboLevoSam]

That is a lovely clean machine. Ive just got the carbon turbo levo and have the same xx1 axs drive chain, i wont ever got back to wired mech.

[@IamRolling]

Nice! Yea, I love the wireless, no complaints.

[@f1hotrod527]

Cool bike. I am picking up a stumpy Evo tomorrow. The regular Stumpjumper would have probably been better for the trails in Wisconsin. But I daydream about conquering Whistler 😂

[@IamRolling]

You and me both, haha. Congrats on the new bike!

[@kentao4]

How do you like it long term? I’m debating switching to a regular stumpy vs my Evo

[@kentao4]

Hey man, how you felt like you found any limits to this bike? I am your height and about 225 (going down to about 205/200) but need one bike for everything. I mean Im not doing 20 ft jumps but I want a lighter bike. ‘22 evo expert. I can’t decide if im selling to get this bike or the ltd which has the traverse over the control wheels, float x and fox 36. I feel like that may be the sweetspot for me. Only drawback is it is a mullet that im not sure about. Good thing is I also have some new carbon controls for pedaling days. What do you think?

[@IamRolling]

I’ve found this to be a good FL trail bike but I wouldn’t want it as my only bike, this bike definitely has limitations only having 140/130 travel.

[@JohnDough-yr2zt]

Well your metal bike was an Horst link. This bike has flex stays.

[@IamRolling]

Great point I didn't mention 👍👍

Hello, many greetings from Germany. What is this dirt deflector at the rear. Bought or self made

[@IamRolling]

Its from a company called Foxfolk

[@ThomasBauernschmitt]

@@IamRolling Hello Rolling thanks for the reply

[@Angus651]

How do you find the wireless dropper and drivetrain?

[@IamRolling]

I am very satisfied with them, I've had zero issues so far & it makes for a nice clean cockpit.

[@peterk7662]

How does this frame hold up to harsh landings? Or sections of rough trail? The flex stays worry me but I've never actually seen the bike in person.

[@IamRolling]

I've done some decent sized dirt jumps & some big drops on trails, I've landed to flat, I haven't had any issues so far. I would recommend it.

[@peterk7662]

@@IamRolling thanks 🙏.
