Mullet Link

The Stumpjumper EVO is designed specifically for off-road riding, featuring advanced geometry and suspension that enhance performance on various terrains. Its "EVO" designation indicates that it has been evolved to provide better handling, stability, and comfort, making it ideal for both casual riders and serious mountain bikers.

The chassis, or frame, of the Stumpjumper EVO is engineered for strength and stability. A well-designed chassis ensures that the bike can handle rough trails while providing a solid foundation for all components. This results in improved handling, better power transfer, and a more enjoyable riding experience.

The suspension link is crucial for how the bike absorbs shocks and maintains traction on uneven surfaces. In the Stumpjumper EVO, the design of the suspension link allows for smoother rides over bumps and obstacles, enhancing overall ride quality and control, especially on challenging trails.

A mixed-wheel setup combines a larger front wheel (29 inches) with a smaller rear wheel (27.5 inches). This configuration offers the best of both worlds: the larger front wheel provides improved speed and stability, while the smaller rear wheel enhances maneuverability. This setup is particularly beneficial for tackling diverse terrains and technical trails.

Kinematics refers to how the bike's components move in relation to each other, especially during suspension travel. The Stumpjumper EVO is designed with optimized kinematics, allowing for better shock absorption and improved handling. This means you can ride more confidently over rough terrain, as the bike reacts effectively to bumps and obstacles.

While the Stumpjumper EVO is designed with advanced features that appeal to experienced riders, its user-friendly design also makes it suitable for beginners. The bike's stability, comfort, and responsive handling can help new riders build confidence on the trails, making it a great choice for anyone looking to improve their mountain biking skills.
