Specialised or Scott

[DieselnDust]

Hi all,

 

So my brother in law is in the market to upgrade from his hardtail and he pretty much narrowed it down to these two models.

 

I said I will also get some opinions on the 2 options. 

 

Weekend rider, trail and fun. Nothing serious.

Stumpjumper

 

no tough choice there

I tend to agree on the Stumpjumper. 

Nothing but joy on this end with a Stumpy and the service from Specialized has been nothing short of fantastic.

Stumpy for sure. For the fun factor.

So the Stumpjumper is gaining momentum it seems

I reckon the stumpjumper is a good bike for SA trail riding. So much so that I seriously considered buying one. (Ended up getting a Scott Genius.)

 

The Spark is also a great bike.

Both will be lekker rides.

Are both options available in his size?

[Bundu Ric]

Yep, both available in his size, 

 

Just got confirmation from Specialized in Lynwood they got in on Friday.

That Spaz is a really good looking bike.

 

But you'd have to scratch the name off, so probably best to go Scott...
