Stumpjumper EVO 27.5 Suspension Link

I recently bought the stumpy evo Ltd, which comes mulleted. I wanted a bike that would be great on big hits and such, I'm loving the mullet set up as well as the geo however the link is the issue. I find myself bottoming out way too easy, even though I'm only about 140lbs. I recently switched to the wrp stumpy evo mullet yolk, as well as the cascade link. This combo has solved all my problems and I no longer find myself digging deep into travel after small hits. Despite the cost, I highly highly recommend the cascade link and wrp yolk as it alters the progression ratios back to the 29er variant.

Fairly easy to install and reasonably priced.

I wanted to run a mullet set up for park on my evo. This made it possible. 100% magic by the way.

Easy installation, only takes about 10-20 minutes, overall great product if you want to run mullet.

The Link is simple to install, and the geo is super fun on steep technical trails. However, the link does affect the progress of the bike and the rear end bottoms out quite easily on hard hits, even with volume spacers added. I'm still exploring options for a more progressive rear shock, but for the time being I've swapped it back to the stock link and 29" rear wheel. Though the mullet setup will work well for less aggressive riding, I'm not sure I can recommend it, at least for my intended use, which is more aggressive riding/terrain.

Installation took me maybe 15-20 minutes and you get to keep all of the factory Geometry that Specialized designed the bike for in the first place. This link actually bumps the rear-wheel travel up to 155mm. Plus it isn't crazy expensive and it comes with the bearings already installed which makes installation a breeze. I 100% highly recommend this link if you are going to run your StumpJumper EVO as a mullet, and personally, I highly recommend the StumpJumper EVO as a mullet because it gets a little more lively and playful than the stock 29" wheel setup.

Easy to install since it comes with preinstalled bearings and it is very reasonably priced.
