Overview
About this bike
Specialized's 120mm-travel Rumor was designed from the ground up for women. Everything from women's-specific parts, to the geometry, to custom suspension were considered. All that translates to a fun, fast, confidence-inspiring ride on any trail. With some of the best standover height in the business, the Rumor's fit is second to none. The aluminum frame is light, agile, and ready to take on the rough stuff with 120mm of FSR rear suspension. More fast and fun parts include a 120mm-travel RockShox fork, quick-rolling 29-inch wheels, and an easy-shifting Shimano/SRAM 2 x 9-speed drivetrain.
