i test rode the Stumpjumper a couple of months ago. nothing "special". it'll be 26lbs if its the S-works frame(carbon) with full XTR. and its not a true 5 inch rear travel. there is no such thing as "the One" bike...

Hey a Stumpy hater! hahaha... Your really must be bored. Yup I have the '05 swork alum stumpy 120mm septune rear shock (indeed less that 5in"),Fox Talas RL 85-120 (also less than 5') '05 xtr w/ crossmax xls at 26 lbs. I do use it to race, trail and even go down tags w/ it. It climbs like a goat and is plush going down rough roads. I only have one bike and I ride them in all kinds of conditions. I think pretty much what the original writer of this thread was looking for.
Welcome to PinoyMTBiker. That's what boredom does... hehehe
See you on the trails!
