Hey perkelino, I wondered if you can help me? A nice black 26.4mm seatpost arrived today for my Stumpy build, but it feels j-u-s-t too loose. I'm reluctant to just tighten up the seat clamp, or try making a drink can shim. If you have a spare couple of minutes, could you check what the diameter...

Hi guys, just been catching up on a few things... Thanks for all the posts and messages. To Voodoocurt - I love the 'traditional' early 90s MTB silhouette with low stem and a decent amount of seatpost showing, but I think bullmoose bars would look pretty cool. Check out a recent post on...

Hey Voodoocurt, welcome and it’s great to see we have a very similar taste in retro machinery! It sounds like you are on a roll with finding some great steel Specialized bikes. A Stumpjumper in any guise is cool, so it will be interesting to see what you do with yours. A return to original spec...

Thanks guys for the words of encouragement. It's definitely a game of patience, savouring the build and getting it just-so - but of course balanced against a keenness to get the bike finished and that first test-ride to see whether it is as good as you hoped it would be! Off now to see if I can...

Re: Thanks very much G60MAT and madjh for the kind words and encouragement. The stickers definitely have a late-80s vibe, but I guess that's what partly gives old frames their character and attraction. There's a little too much matt black going on out there with new frames right now! Thanks...

It's taken a while to get this build started, but finally I've made the time to begin the resurrection of a once very lovely 1990 Stumpjumper. I picked up the frame and forks in very used condition about 18 months ago. I don't know anything of this particular frame's history, but it has...

Re: Thanks! Very tempted to go with the RC35s - if I can get them working ok. I’ll be sure to write a thread and share some pics!

I saw this thread and it made me smile. I've wanted a steel Stumpjumper since they were first launched (YES that long!). A friend somehow managed to buy himself a 1991 Stumpjumper Team with XC Pro on it BITD and I promised myself I'd get one someday. I picked up virtually the same frame as the...

Hi Will, Thanks for getting back to me. Would you accept an offer of £55 posted? If so I will sort out a PayPal payment for you. Many thanks Paul

Hi Will Do you still have the XC Pro seatpost? I am interested if so. Paul

Re: 1992 Salsa ala carte with full M900 XTR NOW STRIPPING Hi, I’d like the cranks and bars if still available. PM on its way.

Re: Hi, is the Trek frame still available? Cheers
