Fox-built Brain shocks are far more consistently controlled than previous units and reliability issues should be sorted too. Direct rear end mounting and full bearing linkages boost smoothness too

  • Specialized's 2010 Stumpjumper
  • Fox-built Brain shocks are far more consistently controlled than previous units and reliability issues should be sorted too. Direct rear end mounting and full bearing linkages boost smoothness too
  • The new top-flow Brain shock from Fox is far smoother and faster reacting than previous units, making it a genuine free flowing yet bob stopping bonus
  • Specialized's new 140mm fork is the lightest travel-adjustable unit around thanks to its carbon crown and tapered steerer
  • Specialized have seriously committed to big wheelers this year, with S Works race hardtail, singlespeed, Epic and Stumpjumper options
  • All Enduro models come with a custom double ring Shimano crank and lightweight Gamut chainguide to keep you chained up however hectic it gets
  • Red anodised SRAM highlights are typical of Specialized's attention to detail
