1. INTRODUCTION
This user manual is specific to your Specialized Stumpjumper Evo Alloy bicycle. It contains
important safety, performance and technical information, which you should read before your
first ride and keep for reference. You should also read the entire Specialized Bicycle Owner’s
Manual (“Owner’s Manual”), because it has additional important general information and
instructions which you should follow. If you do not have a copy of the Owner’s Manual, you
can download it at no cost at www.specialized.com, or obtain it from your nearest Authorized
Specialized Retailer or Specialized Rider Care.
Additional safety, performance and service information for specific components such as
suspension or pedals on your bicycle, or for accessories such as helmets or lights, may
also be available. Make sure that your Authorized Specialized Retailer has given you all
the manufacturers’ literature that was included with your bicycle or accessories. If there is
a difference between the instructions in this manual and the information provided by the
component manufacturer, please refer to your Authorized Specialized Retailer.
When reading this user manual, you will note various important symbols and warnings, which
are explained below:
WARNING! The combination of this symbol and word indicates a potentially
hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or
death. Many of the Warnings say, “you may lose control and fall.” Because
any fall can result in serious injury or even death, we do not always repeat
the warning of possible injury or death.
CAUTION: The combination of the safety alert symbol and the word CAUTION
indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, may result in
minor or moderate injury.
The word CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol indicates a situation
which, if not avoided, could result in serious damage to the bicycle or the
voiding of your warranty.
INFO: This symbol alerts the reader to information which is particularly
important.
GREASE: This symbol means that high quality grease should be applied as
illustrated.
CARBON FRICTION PASTE: This symbol means that carbon friction paste
should be applied as illustrated to increase friction.
TECH TIP: Tech Tips are useful tips and tricks regarding installation and
use.
