I would need some info about the frame, preferably in XL size. How much can the seatpost be lowered without hitting the rear shock or linkage?
I made some brief calculations and got 7 inches (18 cm) for M size frame. Assuming that all models have the same swingarm and chainstay length and comparing the Stumpjumper geometry chart (http://www.specialized.com/bc/SBCGeometryPopup.jsp?spid=13871), where the seat tube is 3,5 inches longer (M vs. XL), the XL frame should have the clearance about 10,5 inches (27 cm). Correct me if I'm wrong.
