Need help: spacer/token config for 2022 Specialized Stumpjumper Expert
Hi-
I bought a '22 Stumpjumper Expert a few years ago. The former owner, and bike mechanic was a skilled/aggressive rider and told me he had changed out the spacers and gave me a bag of them. He was lighter than me, if it matters.
I want to potentially revert the bike to a stock config and ride it for a while that way, and then add back tokens to my liking. I happen to be ~200lbs, so I don't know if I should start with potentially a smaller token as general protection without changing the stock characteristics of the bike that much.
The Specialized person on chat said the stock configs had no tokens in it. Can anyone confirm that?
Any thoughts on an approach to figuring which spacers I need, if any?
My riding style is Colorado trails. I am an aging intermediate re-ramping up my learning curve. I am comfortable with drops, but do not expect be pushing things that aggressively. For reference, I love Radio Flyer at Vail.
Thanks!
