My Stumpjumper EVO Berd Mullet 

Thank you!

Hey thanks for the good vibes!

Hey thanks for sticking around!

@@ShreddingSpree my pleasure 👌

Ya know, I’ve been pretty curious about trying one of those oval chainrings for a while. My buddies really like them. I Might have to get on that soon.

Hey Phillip, glad you’re loving your bike! I’ve seen the Ltd spec before and it looks like a killer ride. Forgot to mention it in the video.

Hey thanks for the kind words! I’m sorry tho, I can’t really comment on the Bronson because I haven’t ridden it. Beautiful bike. Just a quick glance at the geo chart and it looks like the Bronson’s numbers are in the ballpark of everything I look for in a bike that’s straddling the line between trail and enduro. You can’t really go wrong with either bike. The difference will be in the ride feel which you won’t know until you ride both bikes. From a spec/value standpoint I’d just say that specialized is pretty hard to beat.

Siiiiiick. Shred-city

Totally right. Another commenter brought this up and I felt like a dumb dumb for not considering it myself first.

I don’t disagree with a single thing you’ve said here. 😂

Yeah that rear was a bad call on my part. My terrain definitely has hard pack runs but the trails I ride that matter the most to me are quite soft. It’s tough to gauge the tires by the pictures online… live and learn. Hope you’re doing well Pete!

@@ShreddingSpree Doing great Spree. I am on my bike 100 miles per week. I work 4 10's so I have 3 days per week to ride. Hope you have time to post more content often. Thst mullet is sick!

I haven’t experienced that. I set my suspension tune through the calculator on the specialized website and it was an excellent starting point. I’ve made minor tweaks from there and I have no complaints about the rear suspension.

Look up the wrp mullet link. Little bit more expensive but its a yoke so you keep the stock 29er link. You can even run a cascade link with it if you want. Solves that problem alot of people complain about. Also ive heard you wanna run about 25% sag instead of 30 and that helps

Rad! Aside from the things I mention in this video I haven’t done much else to the bike for upgrades other than suspension tuning.

@@ShreddingSpree cool thanks. Those wheels look awesome! How does the hub sound or is it a silent one? I’m loving the bike so far, took it to mountain creek yesterday and the suspension feels great

@@Tom-fn8xc they are the I9 Hydra hubs so the freehub makes that “buzzing 🐝 “ sound. It sounds cool but it’s not outrageously loud. Keep shredding that bike man. There’s nothing quite like that New Bike Stoke!

@@ShreddingSpree Nice! Those hubs are awesome.

If you want a loud hub remove all the grease.

Hey Robert, thanks for sticking around!

It’s southern CA. I agree though, very unique trail for the area

Great point! Holy cow how didn’t I think of that??

No one talks about it 🤷🏼‍♂️ I suspect 29er is the main reason sram etc started pushing 12s. My other fun ‘no one thinks about it fact’ most suspension design is developed for a specific tooth chain ring yet brands never state that “this frame is designed for” and so people don’t realise their are consequences to changing up or down… anyway, nice solid review, I’m sure you’ll get some free wheels if you keep the quality up!

There - not - their (thanks auto)

Yes that would also make the bike a mullet.

Sorry for my delayed response. I haven’t tried that link. I don’t have any bottom out issues with this setup after a few minor tweaks to specialized’s suspension calculator recommendations.

Mind sharing what you changed?

ciao Roberto, penso che una ruota posteriore da 27.5 andrà bene senza il collegamento speciale ma abbasserà la parte posteriore della bici. l'altezza del movimento centrale, l'angolo effettivo del tubo sterzo, l'angolo del tubo sella e la cinematica delle sospensioni saranno tutti interessati. questo significa che la bici si gestirà in modo diverso da come previsto. Immagino che non salirà altrettanto bene, ma potrebbe essere buono su discese più ripide con un angolo del tubo sterzo più lento. Penso che anche la moto vorrà fare curve un po' più larghe. potrebbe essere una scadenza interessante provarlo senza il collegamento, ma non credo che ti dia una buona idea di quanto sia specializzato questo cefalo.

I didn’t. I like Santa Cruz but Hightower wasn’t on my radar

@@ShreddingSpree it’s either this or SCHT V3 for me just doing Research thx

Mine is S3

I left my sus settings the same. In the video I note that the rear felt more loose with the mullet setup but I’m pretty sure it was the tire. I’ve got only a handful of rides on my new rubber and I’m feeling like it’s staying hooked up better now. Jury is still out though. What were your geo settings when you rode it?

did you use mullet link or just downsize the wheel ?
