Specialized 2012 mountain bikes – First look
Specialized's latest redesign of the 30-year-old Stumpjumper is the biggest news for 2012, but they also have new carbon Camber and alloy Carve 29ers, as well as a new entry-level downhill rig, the Status, which is a replacement for the stalwart Big Hit model.
At their global mountain bike launch in Monterey, California the 'big S' also unveiled some key upgrades to the Epic full-suspension range and carbon Stumpjumper hardtails – the most significant change being a crown-mounted Fade adjuster for the SID Brain fork found on the S-Works, Expert and EVO R models.
Stumpjumper FSRAt its launch 30 years ago, the Stumpjumper was one of the first bikes ready to hit the trail right out of the box, at a time when many 'mountain bikes' were still cobbled together from 'clunker', road bike and motorcycle parts. Fast forward to the coming season, the 2012 model year, and Specialized are again making Stumpjumpers to fit many different riders and styles of riding right out of the box. There's an M5 alloy hardtail – more on that below – along with both alloy and carbon FSR full-suspension bikes.
The new Stumpjumper FSR will undoubtedly be Specialized’s most versatile model. It’s built with their ‘trail geometry’, which is defined by a lower bottom bracket, slacker head angle and shorter chainstays than their cross-country race bikes, and available in carbon or M5 alloy, with 26in or 29in wheels. There are also heavier-duty Stumpjumper FSR EVO models in both wheel sizes and frame materials.

With their latest redesign, Specialized are asking riders to

The S-Works Stumpjumper FSR Carbon is available with 26in wheels and 140mm of travel, or 29in wheels and 130mm. We took a ride on the 29er version. This top-of-the-line, break-the-bank bike rides as a machine nearing the US$10,000 mark should – extremely well.
2011 Specialized S-Works Epic 29er~XX~Roval Carbon
I am relisting this bike after the winning bidder could not come up with the funds to pay for the auction. Please do not bid if you do not have the money to pay for it. This bike has not been out of my house or ridden since the last auction so everything is as listed below. Thanks! 2011 Specialized S-Works Epic 29er. Size Large. Like new condition. I purchased this bike about 1 month ago. It was ridden about 7 or 8 times. The first time was a short trail ride. The rest were short dirt/gravel road rides. I would guess it has less than 100 miles on it. It has never been crashed or dropped. The only blemish I can find on it is a small nick on the inside of the drive side dropout. It looks like maybe it happened when it was being assembled. It is only in the white paint, not in the carbon. I have never had the chain drop. I have included a picture to show this. The Carbon Roval wheelset is perfect. The grips and saddle show a little bit of wear but no more than you would expect with white components. The bike is spec'd exactly as stock. No pedals included. Bike will be very well packed and insured! The bike is available for inspection. If you are close by, pick up is available. I would also consider delivering the bike if you are within a reasonable distance. Since I have this bike listed locally as well, I reserve the right to end the auction early if I sell it before the end of the auction. US Sales only. Paypal or cash sale only. Thanks for looking!
