Exclamation New TrailBike

I am lookingto buy a new trialbike. I'm 5'9 220lbs. I have a few choices in mind, Scott MC30, Merida Trans-Mission Race, Jamis XLT 2.0, RM Slayer 50, or Stumpy Expert Disc. My LBS doesn't have some of these bikes to demo, so hoping to get some feedback in this area before I lay down my money. Thank you

It looks like you have a very nice list of bikes there, I imagine you will be happy with any one of them. Out of all of the ones above I think my favorite is the Stumpjumper Expert Disc, you are referring to the FSR right? It is very rare that you hear from a Specialized owner that is not happy with their bike. They also have great customer service, hopefully you will never need it though.

thank you for your reply LowCel. I went to my LBS, and since I live in Korea, all of the sizes they had where small, or they where out. So I have to wait till they get some bigger sizes in. They had a Stumpy '04, but it didn't have the Fox or Minute fork. So i'll wait and see. thanks
