Hi,

My 2010 Specialized Stumpjumper is needing to be replaced. Any suggestions as to what to buy next. I’m looking for a similar specification and up to £3000 would be the budget

Any advice appreciated, I’d be looking to buy sometime in 2017

Cheers

Grant

Difficult to buy a bad bike for £3k these days, and a large amount of personal preference is going to shape your buying decision in the end.

Whyte T-130 consistently comes out top of the pile in the mid travel, mid priced full sus trail bike reviews so worth checking them out. Plenty of other models out there too though.

New Stumpy – it has a glovebox, the Whyte doesn’t

Made me wince when I heard this was being marketed as the biggest feature on the, at the time, new Specialized range! Cos of course that’s the most important thing on a bike, somewhere to stash my sandwiches… 😕

Not the most important but all else being equal the swat boxes look dead handy
