Specialized comes out with news that for many will be a shock ... some full suspended models will be produced in the 650b format such as the new Stumpjumper FSR Evo 650b: "We believe in large wheels, as long as they are built specifically for each type of rider and use ”-referische Marco Cislaghi of Specialized Italia-“ the 29ers are fast and stable. The advantage of the Specialized 29er has been proven and is appreciable in both XC and All-mountain / Enduro. However, we know that not all riders want to ride a 29er and so we will also produce smaller bikes "

Compared to the 26 ″ wheels, reports Specialized, the 650 naturally offer more traction and stability and our goal is to meet the bikers who are clamoring for this type of bike. However, we will not stop developing the 29 ″ because we believe in the concept.

In 27,5 (or better 650b) 2 versions of the Stumjumper FSR Evo model will be available:
- Stumpjumper FSR Evo Expert Carbon from 5500 € price list (see in the picture and below for the characteristics)
- Stumpjumper FSR Evo Comp M5 from 2790 € of list

ppgad@pucrs.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
