    No cable routing available for a derailleur is so stupid.
  • @CoderShare
    As a specialized fan, this one is a big no. Proprietary shock, wireless shifting and insane prices are all deal breakers.
  • @jackgu1893
    No derailleur cable routing? Not a problem, Im gonna zip tie my XT shift cable on the frame 😆
  • @shafhamid83
    I live in Malaysia and Specialized bikes are known to be on the expensive side among MTBikers here. However they've been slashing prices on their Stumjumpers these past few months (sometimes up to 70% off). Now I know why they were clearing stock, a new one is coming.
  • You can tell his enthusiasm on the new update. Glad I got my evo ltd when I did
  • @5492sparky
    I’ve got a 2022 Evo Expert. Best bike I’ve had. Don’t think I’ll trade in for this from what I’ve seen.
  • The little arm that the Stumpjumper had to stiffen the frame is what made it a stumpy. I could always spot one miles away because of it. I'm sure gonna miss it.
  • @harrie205
    I wanted to dislike it but a Trail Bike with a Ohlins fork with 38mm Stanchions and Coil shock, TRP DH-R EVO brakes Sounds very interesting.
  • @McSchwabl
    When they git rid of the shifting cable why don’t go the full way and only use wireless droppers?
  • @klaymoon1
    Looks like the perfect all around trail bike. I love the functional look of the new frame!
  • Looks like my 2016 stump jumper. I’ve saved lots of $$$ not believing the hype through the years
  • @MIkegrimm2
    As someone who just wants a good trail bike without breaking the bank. The Giant Trance X1 is looking better and better. I am sure that the Specialized bike is great, it feels like it is going for more big hit bike park stuff than just a fun trail bike for my local trails, and second, the cost, some may consider a $4000 to $12000 bike is no big deal. But it is for me, I just do not have that kind of money to spend.
  • @Tanner731
    Nice to see they finally came up with some mud flap sorta thing to keep the rear triangle from trying to eat rocks and destroying your frame.
  • @davekal
    The slammed seat tells me everything I need to know about what I first perceived as a super slack actual seat tube angle. No thanks 😂. With a 36 inch inseam that's a deal breaker.
  • @ish474
    I always get interested when they update my Stumpy. At first glance I'm still keeping my 2019.
  • As for no current Aluminum versions, a few guys are riding aluminum frames in the Specialized release video. So looks like there will be some options eventually.
