A quick, snappy ride,and great balance- it will take sudden, hard climbs without slipping the rear wheel or lifting off. I occasionally ride a Trek Fuel 7, and by comparison, the Trek is an SUV, the Stumpjumper is a sports car. Precision handling, but a rougher ride. A sexy-looking bike. I have ridden this bike for three years in Moab, Fruita, and the Keystone bike park's intermediate runs, and have never, in three years, had a flat or broken any components except for a shifter in a crash...and I've ridden it hard, endo'd, wrapped the handlebars around trees. I am beginning to think this bike really is bulletproof. And did I mention sexy-looking?
