Last spring, in the shadow of the conventional Stumpjumper, Specialized almost secretly launched the radical Stumpjumper EVO. With a geometry that rivalled many DH sleds it could not be more different from its trail focussed stablemate. It was first released as the Comp Alloy build. Now, almost a year later the wild Stumpy EVO goes carbon, in the form of the Stumpjumper Evo Pro.

Just like it’s alloy counterpart, the Stumpjumper Evo Pro is available with 27.5” and 29” wheels and in two frame sizes- S2 and S3. The Evo 275 model packs 150mm of rear wheel travel, and the Evo 29 sports 140mm out back. Both models come fitted with a 150mm travel fork up front.
