Specialized Rumor 650b Bike - 2016

We've all heard the old euphemism, "you can't have it both ways." But our Rumor FSR 650b, however, lets you have your cake and eat it too. It climbs well, it descends with confidence, it looks amazing—it's the perfect jumping off point into the world of trail riding. Even better, every component of the bike, from the handlebars to the crankarm length, is tailored for both women and rider size. And just as importantly, its Women's Trail 650b Geometry creates a roomy, responsive, and confidence inspiring ride quality with a low standover height, while every aspect of the suspension has been scrutinized and custom-tuned for women.A M5 aluminum frame checks all of the performance boxes, like internal cable and dropper post routing, light overall weight, and the perfect blend of stiffness and compliance, but it's also built around our Women's 650b Trail Geometry that dramatically reduces standover height, while increasing comfort and confidence over rugged terrain.Tektro Gemini hydraulic disc brakes provide powerful braking over rough terrain, while also remaining durable, reliable, and easy to maintain.125mm of Active and Independent FSR rear suspension is provided by a custom X-Fusion 02 RL Rear Shock that's received our own Women's Rx Trail Tune, providing a lighter tune for female riders who love to get rowdy.
