Stumpy FSR Elite

Fodder666

Just got my first FS bike after spending a good 2-3 weeks reading reviews, searching the internet, asking questions and speaking to shops before picking a 2011 Stumpy Elite. Why last years? I didn't like the look of the BB30 and 142 rear spacing that they've introduced across the range, I could get a higher spec bike for a lot less money than this years equivalent and I liked the different colour scheme

It is completely standard and just need to decide on a set of pedals for it, test ride ones are on it for now.

Very nice, where did you get it from?

Thanks, got it from http://www.bikescene.co.uk, it was the last one so I was lucky. The staff are really helpful, set up the suspension for my weight and it was well packed for shipping.

I think your fears about BB30 are unfounded...it'll be everywhere soon!

That aside....I really like the bike, lucky find....enjoy it!

Cheers, it's the first full bike I've bought in more than 10 years as I built my last one. It's not that I have any fears about BB30, I personally don't see the need to change to a new standard that costs more when I haven't had any issues with what I currently run.

Looks great mate. I agree on the BB30 but 142 x 12 is way better than a normal qr
