Re: Stumpjumper clone Received my frame. This is my second full suspension 'knock off' that I have purchased. The first one, little shorter travel and dated (68 head tube angle). Finish was good, but this frame has really open my eyes. I currently have it taken apart. I can rush it and put it together but it won't do it justice. The linkage has decent bearings, after reading the post I see the other user has updated parts on it. I will most likely do the same. Took it to my buddy who's a specialized dealer - currently in Ontario, all specialized enduro or stump jumpers have already sold out. He could not believe how close it is. Another detail that almost makes me want to do it is on the down tube is an impression for the swat box. Makes be think that it is meant to be cut out. The downtube is quite oval like the stump jumper. They definitely manufactured this bike at some point. Communication was decent, all through messaging on aliexpress. More to follow.

Re: Stumpjumper clone hi everyone,
I'm new on this forum and want to share a few info about this frame. Ordered in on december 23. recieved last week with DPD shipping or XDB whatever you call it - no tax had to be paid.
I had all the components (bar wheelsets) waiting at home so i could start assembly asap... but - they speciffy 190*50 or 160*50 rear shock - i went for 190*50. My frame is L size. I installed the shock and let all the pressure out to see where it stops - shocker... when rear triangle allready hit the seatpost the shock still had 10-12mm of travel left... So i fiddled around with caliper/measure tape and figgured it out that min length after the shock is compressed is 160mm and max is 210mm - so the only shock that is suitable in my opinion is 210*50mm - with that you have exactly 150mm of travel on the rear wheel. So the info they give out on the aliexpress seems to be wrong or the old design of the shock fork. anyways, i now ordered 210*50 shock.

The frame is really well made - of course i ordered all the oem items swus231 posted in #31 post - thanks! i did a hack paintjob and now waiting for the proper shock and wheels to check the ride. There are minor surface (I hope) dents/holes which the black paint hides really well so consider that when chosing your color choice.

Frame weighs 2190g painted - without seatpost clamp and chainguide.

Edit: i forgot to add, the headtube angle with 210mm shock and 160mm fork is around 65°

the aluminium bar is 210mm and the next hole is 160mm - so you can check the clearance of the frame.
