Stinky Or Stumpjumper?

Got a Kona Shred at the moment and love it. Want a full sus, but not sure whether the Stinky is too heavy. i like the the Kona's are bombproof, but then i like the look of the stumpjumper.

cheers

Depends what your using it for the stinky is more of a freeride bike with it's 160mm travel and the stumpy more trail bike with 140mm travel...the stinky is heavy and pretty basic.

Stumpy is a good trail bike. Stinky is a poor freeride bike. I wouldn't buy either.
Do you want a trail/xc bike or a freeride bike?

I ride mostly single track, Follow the dog and the monkey trail on Cannoxk chase but hoping to do peak district and maybe snowdon next year. Would the stump jumper survive it all?

Easily. The Stinky sounds overkill, and as has been mentioned is heavy and rather low specced.

Thanks guys

Would you recommend any other full sus? Got about £750 to spend and looking at 2nd hand, to get more for my money.
