XC Specialized 'StumpCarver' 29er

[Spike-X]

Yep, that's what I'm calling it. Most of the parts from my 2012 Carve Expert transferred to a, frankly, scarily light Stumpjumper HT frame after my old frame cracked.

Edit: Upgraded parts in bold.

Frame - Specialized Stumpjumper HT
Rear shock - No
Front shock/fork - Recon Silver TK SA SL 29 80mm
Handlebars - XC Flat bar 31.8mm
Stem - Specialized 3D
Headset - yep
Grips - Ergon GE1
Saddle - Carve SL hollow cro-mo rail
Seatpost - Not a dropper
Brakes - Shimano XT M800 160/180
Cranks - Sram GX 1x
Chainring - Sram X-Sync 32T
Chain - Shimano
Pedals - It used to have JetBlack flats, but they've disappeared so I got these Odyssey BMX pedals that I'm probably going to have to replace because they're ugly and not very grippy
Front derailleur - What is this, the 90s?
Rear derailleur - Shimano XT Shadow 11 sp
Shifter - Shimano XT 11 sp
Cassette - Shimano 11 sp 11-42
Front hub - Specialized branded Formula
Front rim - 'Carve Stout 29' (rebranded Alex) 23mm
Front tyre - Schwable Nobby Nic 2.25
Rear wheel - Shimano WH-MT600
Rear tyre - Specialized Ground Control 2.1 Sport
Tubeless sealant - Peaty's, although now that I think of it I have plenty of Stan's lying around that would probably have been good enough

Planning to upgrade fork when I can, because the stock one is absolutely flogged.

See most recent post for updated pics.

That is one of the cleanest front triangles I have seen in a while!

Very nice bike!

Thanks! Hopefully I'll get to test it out on the weekend. If it rides as good as it looks I'm gonna have a lot of fun.

After being sold to The Boy's mate, bought back and upgraded by The Boy, broken by shitty Novotec hub, left to languish in the back room for far too long, and finally fixed and revived, I have my XC/general riding around bike back!

...and then the frame cracked. R.I.P.
