Whatever settings you run on your camera - they are awesome :) I am leaning my head in turns, the sense of speed is insane. You can ride man! I had an impression that the sound of air coming from the fork is sign of improper damper oil bleed or in general an issue with the fork, but yours is spanking new and top of the shelf - definitely everything is a OK with it! :D
i have a request: please post a follow up video with a review of this bike, preferably with your opinions on how it compares to similar bikes. would love to hear your opinion. you’re definitely more qualified than some of the “bike reviewers” on youtube. it’s easy to spot.
Can I ask why you’re not qualified for a actual first impression/review? You’re obviously a skilled rider. Even if you share your opinions they’re still opinions
Dude, you own and ride the previous version more than any channel on TH-cam. You just got to ride the new bike and you can't even give us your honest comparisons? Cmon man.
I'm waiting for the pro max version with the better camera and wireless brakes... Jokes aside you bet I'd find a way to route a cable for the derailleur 😈
That bike is rapid but £7000 is a big chunk of cash and the ohlins version is,£9000 your gunna need a lottery win for either. but all said and done the bike is well specked and imo a massive improvement over the stumpy Evo comp.
My normal stumpy is an S5 but this new one is an S4 (used to ride all S4 back in the day) and honestly i really enjoyed riding an S4 again, being 6ft/6'1 i would say im kinda in between being able to ride both comfortably, the S4 is defo more fun to ride and easier to manoeuvre but when i took my other bikes in s4 to Dyfi or the alps i would have preferred something longer with more reach, which is where the s5 would be perfect. So i really think its one of them decisions you gotta make on what sort of tracks you ride 🤷♂️ i always thought i'd be faster on an s5 on most tracks but honestly s4 on this new bike felt insanely rapid so now i'm a bit confused 😅😭 maybe i'll have to see if i can nab one to take somewhere a bit more techy/rough/steep than surrey hills 👀
@@didzy9349 honestly i wouldn't say any specialized i've ever had has been very quiet, i don't think that SRAM drivetrains are helping... always seem to be some chain slap or mech noise. Maybe i'm just too sensitive to it now since riding the nicolai gearbox belt drive bike because that thing was insanely quiet ofc 🤷♂️ either way the spesh is definitely not a rattly klunking mess tho
11:43 - non sales type bullshit bingo thoughts and comments from people like yourself are probably more useful to consumers than the reviews churned out by the bigger names so go wild and throw your thoughts out there. You said the rear shock has fixed bottom out issues, have they not added more progression to that linkage? (I haven't looked yet). Guessing the travel reduction from last generation is to keep it away from the new Enduro as well.
Appreciate the input bro! I'll defo take that into consideration 🤝 i'm not sure about the linkage progression but that wouldn't surprise me, and i heard rumours they weren't gonna be making another enduro (no idea how true that is) but if so it did surprise me seeing them not bring out an EVO version of this bike... i know the new status is 170mm but it's not exactly a race bike like the old enduro 🤔 i guess we'll have to wait and see 🤷♂️
Your speed on these trails blows my mind. Goes to show your skills and also the capability of the bike.
@@The.JZA. thank u boss, appreciate it!
and the foot plant ending. perfection
Sick ..... but sicker as I know those tracks. Bonkers fast man ✌
Hes a fast boy
Lovely stuff absolutely bombing on those trails
@@jordanshredzmtb6156 thank u bro!
The sway of a salsa dancer. Yes it's a compliment 🍹

I'll say it again, that green and gold🤌🏻
Just looking at the geo on that bike I can tell it is very stable at high speeds.
geo is defo spot on, and the adjustability is sick too, can fully customise it to the tracks you wanna ride which is cool

yes bring back the whoops track. so good
Nice bike❤

Man i've gotta get back to the surrey hills
running pretty good atm but a lot of tracks are absolutely blown to pieces or overgrown with ferns... just gotta know which ones to hit up!

4:33 What was that loud noise?
Can you comppare to your old stumpjumper ?
When is the 15 pro max coming out?
@@lawrencebigg2181 thats the S7 size one right? 😅
My enduro is equipped with industry nine and hope. Sick ride
What size you running dude? Your normal stumpy is S5 right?

Good review will
hes got the zoomies on him
im stumped!
And Jumped?
@@willgreenfield always. Good video will, i aint seen a few of these trails.
How does it pedal vs the previous stumpy?
I think the Surrey Hills will need a little time to to recover
Im 5'10. Do you think i would be too tall for a S3 s works enduro bike?
Is it quiet? I have quiet ocd and with you saying it was making a loud noise??? Is a rattly klunking mess descending?

Hope you sorted them stem bolts before you rode it 😬
Wassup with them? 😅
Hey, its a bit of a personal question but what do you do for a living to be able to afford bikes like these?
@@FadedAsian_ hi this isn't my bike, i was just lent it by specialized to try it out! Thanks
