Purchased At:
NM Bike and Sport
Strengths:
this is the best all mountain bike possible. it accelerates, climbs and descends with perfection. I was very disappointed in the Santa Cruz Blur which was suppose to be all these things . NOT even close as compared to the stumpjumper. Dial the suspension to 100mm and the geometry is cross country perfect, wind it up to 130mm and go downhill and over stumps so fast you'll want your body armor! I added crossmax SL's to mine and I have the best bike I've ever ridden, and I've had lots!The Diva fork is set up perfect for the lighter rider and the frame geometry fits like a glove! FINALLY! thank you specialized
Weaknesses:
should have come stock with carbon handlebar. A manitou shock pump should have been included with the bike. I had to buy one seperately.

Bottom Line:
Thie is the best fitting, most awesome all round bike money can buy.You can race, ride, jump and fly with it! The price is right and worth every penny.
