EVOLVED: The All-New 2021 Specialized Stumpjumper EVO (Product Review)

Overall Review
The Stumpjumper EVO truly evolved in 2018, taking the long, low, slack mantra to new extremes for the brand. It was a different beast with a 63.5-degree head angle, super-low standover, lengthy reach, and was clearly made for getting rowdy. Fast forward to today and Specialized is back with a new generation that continues to push their boundaries but is far more accessible to more riders.

It was the Giant Trance X. You remember it from 2013 though it was a rather forgettable escapade. “Sure,” was all that you could reply. What did you have to lose? Showing...

YT IZZO vs. XC Race Bike | Long Term Review (Product Review)

Overall Review
When we swung our legs over the new YT IZZO for our First Ride feature a couple of months ago, we were blown away by how well the bike pedaled and carried speed over flat terrain. But what if our tired old legs were just playing a trick on us, so used to dragging our big enduro bikes up a hill that we had simply lost our reference points? To put our first impressions to the test, we called in some reinforcements to help us evaluate the IZZO against some seriously fast competition. Check out the video review below to see how this new trail bike performed when we took it to Cross Country school...
