I have purchased both a Stumpjumper 2021 and an Stumpjumper Evo 2023. I love the bikes however both had multiple rear hub failures. I figured specialized would have solved this. I am 205 pounds and love to climb. Don’t expect to get more that 400km out of a stock rear hub. Specialized will warranty the part. No issues there - just watching your buddies ride off and enjoy the weekend without you is real sad. Dropping 6k on a bike and having consistent hub issues is not cool. I would understand if it was one. But I have had 4 fail. Great bikes but upgrade the hub before your SOL.

I'm not a great rider but with this bike I'm doing things I didn't think I'd ever feel comfortable doing. It climbs over things easily and I have so much confidence on the descends. Over all happy with my purchase. I highly recommend this bike.

Awesome full send machine, unbeatable price to value proposition. Smartly chosen components except dropper and wheels but at that price that’s understandable

If you want a bike that can do anything and that is the PERFECT middle ground, this is the bike for you! The only thing I don't like is the fact that it doesn't come with 27.5 wheels. 27.5 RULES!!! In my opinion at least.

Disclaimer: I am NOT an amazing rider. Not by a long shot...But this bike sure is an amazing bike. This bike is capable of tackling all of my local DFW trails with ease. I've also been able to take it to Moab, Park City, Palo Duro, and Bentonville now and it hasn't failed me yet. Granted, I wasn't on any double black trails in those areas, but if I was good enough to ride them I have no doubt the bike would have handled them without a problem. I've made some minor upgrades but it is pretty well-equipped right out of the box. I love that I am able to modify the geo quickly and easily when I want to try a different riding style. You won't regret the purchase.

Amazing bike. Perfect all around downhill and a great ride for any terrain!

I went from a 2008 dinosaur of a stump jumper to one of these beasts after renting one I knew I needed one. This bike shreds and absolutely love the way I ride and push it. With some slight cockpit upgrades and going Cush core and tubeless I can’t say enough good about this bike.

Advanced technology. One front sprocket; fully adjustable suspension, front and rear; internal storage; tubeless or tubed tires; adjustable frame geometry, front and rear; quick drop seat post. Subdued paint job, extra-wide handlebars, aggressive tread pattern and more aggressive on front tire. Seat comfortable for men and women.

Extremely good bike overall the geo, components and everything else is really good except the rims... They are really not that tough

Everything about this bike was perfect for me. The sale price made it even better.

Bought this bike a year ago. It's my second stumpjumper and first Evo comp carbon. Perfect blend for climbing and downhill. Great geometry and decent breaking. Love my Evo.

More guidance to set up required in lieu of having to search set up criteria for each component. Apart from that, bike is sweet!

I’m in the desert southwest and was looking for a hearty plow horse to hit the mountain and ride in the foothills as well. I love the adjustability. It makes it versatile. Flatter trails can still be fun and you have the ability to bomb down steeper trails as well. Light, comfortable at speed and super playful.

Excellent all around

Original config was super slow on cross country trails. Friends on Epic Evos would crush me, but swapping out chunky tires to more XC and getting rival carbon rims made all the difference. And i can still bomb down runs with loads of travel.

I have had this bike for just about a year now and have taken it to Moab, Whistler, Deer Valley, and tones of trails around the colorado area. I have a S5 and this bike really does do it all. If you are looking for the one quiver option this is the bike for you! Although be careful with the stock rims (they are not as tough as they describe them to be).

Great bike all around 🤙 10/10 bike wish it had more color options for frame

This bike is great for technical and chunky trails, it is a decent climber as well. When you hit flowy single track it can keep pace but really shines in more demanding type trails (think north shore) type. Cornering in tight spots and switchbacks is a bit arduous due to its slack and length (I have an S6 so maybe smaller frames not as much as struggle) but you can get use to it.

Such a beautiful bike, the colour (doppio) is a lot darker in real life and looks so good, I have had this bike for almost a week, I have had an opportunity to take it on the trails and it handled so good while looking good, I have had the opportunity to hit some nice jumps and man it handles it well, perfect bike for trails and just hanging around on the streets, because its carbon the climb isn't too bad anymore and the declines man, its crazy how light a bike can be with so many components

This bike is perfect for everything, climbing descending, you name it. I don’t have any issues whatsoever. I’ve been riding since 1986 and this is the best bike I’ve ever had.

Just upgraded from a 2009 SX trail 2, I loved it but she started to wear out too much. This stump jumper is an upgrade in every aspect. The bike looked large and felt a little large at first, but it didn’t take long for it to feel right. It climbs great especially for the type of bike it is. I have not had the opportunity to hit big jumps yet, but smaller ones I have to be careful to not over shoot them. Biggest drop so far was about 6 feet, no problem. I have a 5ish mile loop with long up with some steep parts, rocky area’s, small jumps and drops, steep downward turns, long rides, everything good. I shed about 10min of the loop from my old bike with energy to spare. I have not moved any of the adjustments from the middle settings, not sure if I will. I’m 5’10, 170 pounds I got the S4, fits just right. I trimmed the bars to 275mm.

Not only am I doing things on this bike that I was too afraid to do on my previous trail bike...the stumpy evo makes them EASY. The bike encourages you to push your limits, so be careful.

Love it! Climbing, descending, ripping. It does it all!

This thing is a beast. Definitely better than my old 650B. Absorbs all the bumps from ruts and roots like it was nothing that just makes the handing better. Just love this thing.

Amazing bike. The color (dopio/sand) is actually quite a bit darker in real life and looks absolutely incredible. The bike is big. Really big. Very stable and the suspension is amazing. The bike wants to understeer a bit so you really got to make sure you are focused on control (compared to 27.5 where you can be hanging in the backseat a lot more). The bike climbs really really well and the carbon allows for some good weight management and pop on jumps. Little difficult to handle in super tight tech trails but eats any rock gardens or chudder in between. Great bike!

Great bike but it should have come with 2.5 or 2.6 tires

What more could you want in a bike??Climbs,bombs,corners and handles anything it’s thrown at literally.Jumps and ploughs really well for a more playful and smaller travelled trail bike.Raced it aswell and never let me down at all once. Love this bike!!

So glad I upgraded to the Evo instead of the comp alloy. Feels great riding where looks great!

A 9/10. Coming from a Specialized Enduro, I never thought I'd say this...but this ST-EVO is a better bike in almost everyway. It's playful, climbs well, descends exceptionally well, pops off of everything, is comfortable, feels just as solid as the Enduro. It's a one bike quiver in my opinion. With a decent wheelset, it would be a 10/10.
