This is what a NEW BIKE should feel like

I got a new bike, the Specialized Stumpy eco pro T Type and figured this would be a cool way to test it out. I challenged myself on a climb that I truly dislike and a fun dh trail. I took the bike out to some trails in Laguna / Aliso California. The trail I rode down was called lynx, one of my favorites. And the climb up was called Cholla, a trail I always try avoiding. I was very surprised on my climb time up I was dreading it but I beat the average time which was 7 minutes. I will say the geometry of the bike feels great so the climb maybe wasn’t as bad….. I feel like challenging myself to something hard will distract me from all the new bike parts and help me focus on my goal which will lead me to truly feel how the bike is. To me, I think feeling the best on a climb and a descend is important. Overall NEW BIKE days are the best days so anything we do or ride will be fun!

    It's not the bike that goes fast. It's the fact that you're not scared of crashing into a tree at 60 mph.

    Congratulations Heather well done definitely this would be a very proud time betting your time up that climb. I love the look of your bike it looks so cool. I’m always looking forward to seeing you on your next adventure 😊❤

    Great video Heather. When I get a new bike it usually takes me several rides to dial it in. You beating the times first time out of the gate is awesome. Always love your upbeat personality and fun videos.

    Thanks for the inspiration. I live down in San Diego and plan on definitely making a trip up there to check out those trails and hopefully make a video somewhat close as entertaining as yours.

    I'm estimating here, but I'd guess my time going up Cholla would be 2-3 hours... + / - a day... 😳🥺

    Just start my bike journey at 50 and watching your videos helps with terminology and your laugh seems to bring a bunch of joy so get out there and get a ride on

    I just got almost the same bike. The Stumpy Pro T-type (not Evo). Same components basically. I did notice the T-type shifts slower than mechanical, like a few microseconds pause. It's nice that you can shift under full power though. Also, in the app you can set it to shift 2 or 3 gears at once with a long press. You can also switch the buttons. I found it nicer to have the top button for shifting to an easier gear, and the bottom button to shift to a harder gear, so I don't have to move my thumb as far when I'm going really fast and need more gear. It's easy to move my thumb further when I'm going slow climbing. That was my thoughts behind swapping them at least. Give the brakes a chance to bed in. They are my favorite brakes now. So much power, perfect modulation, quiet, consistent, wow. Haven't ridden Aliso. Ridgway CO right now is amazing. Starts at 7000' and nice shade. Super fun, flowy, rollercoaster like trails. And you can hit Orvis hot springs after.
