Stumpjumper 15 EVO Expert 2026

Description

The Stumpjumper 15 with GENIE gives me the benefits of a long-travel bike and those of a short-travel bike, all in one. – Allan Cooke. The Stumpjumper 15 eliminates every compromise in the trail world. Devouring big obstacles like a long-travel bike? Done. Control, playfulness and efficiency like an XC bike? Done. Wide customization options to make it perfect for the only rider who really matters: you? Done, done, done. REVOLUTIONARY CAPABILITY: GENIE technology combines a snappy, playful ride with a DH-travel feel. SUPREME CONTROL: Tangibly better traction compared to the "Bike of the Year," the Stumpjumper EVO. CUSTOMIZATION: Six geometry settings, mullet or 29er wheel setup, adjustable compression curve, and more. GENIE — The Magic Carpet: The biggest innovation on the Stumpjumper 15 is GENIE. This patent-pending air spring technology we invented grants every cyclist's three wishes: the feel and control of a coil spring, better bottom-out prevention than a standard air spring, and an adjustable platform for a playful feel. THE 'GENIE': GENIE combines the linear stiffness of the coil spring that improves control through the "bump zone" with the progressive air spring curve at the end of travel to prevent bottom-outs. Truly the best of both worlds – coil and air – with extra adjustability. Say goodbye to compromises and welcome the future of suspension. WHAT BUMP?: With 16.3% better bump force management compared to a traditional air spring shock, GENIE makes the Stumpy 15 perform like a longer-travel bicycle. For example, the Stumpjumper 15 (with 145 mm rear wheel travel) and our Enduro (170 mm travel) both use 101 mm of stroke to absorb a bump force of 1080 N. TRACTION GALORE: Extensive field testing shows the Stumpjumper 15 with GENIE delivers 57% better traction than a standard air spring shock, because GENIE technology offers flexible, coil-like performance that keeps the wheel in contact with the ground for a greater percentage of time compared to a typical air spring. NO MORE BOTTOM OUTS: 39% fewer bottom-out events compared to a standard air spring. When big hits occur, you'll benefit from the progressive curve in the last 30% of GENIE's stroke. Thanks to two-phase behavior, GENIE reduces the frequency and severity of bottom-out events. PERFECTED GEOMETRY: The bike's geometry provides great capability when needed, agility in tight sections, and climbing efficiency. The wide cockpit centers you on the bike, optimizing traction and cornering control. The low bottom bracket, relaxed head angle and optimized fork offset promote stability even on technical terrain. YOUR WAY: The Stumpjumper 15 seamlessly integrates geometry adjustment, making it the most customizable trail bike ever. Six distinct geometry settings let you fine-tune performance for any style and terrain. Steering angle and bottom bracket height can be precisely adjusted for stability or clearance. WHEEL CHOICE: With our aftermarket links you can choose between large wheels both front and rear, or use a 27.5" rear wheel for a more reactive and playful ride. Whatever you choose, geometry is unaffected. CARRY EVERYTHING YOU NEED: The SWAT 4.0 compartment on the Stumpjumper 15 increases storage space in the down tube.
