Anybody selling or know of anyone wanting to sell an early 90’s Stumpjumper or M2? Nothing over 18” and doesn’t matter if it’s just a frameset or complete bike. Steel frame preferred but would be interested in the earlier M2’s as in the photo (not my bike sadly but can dream 🤣) 👍👍

Yes, a bit before my time there but my mate had one back in the day 👍

Looking for a nice set of silver Deore XT HB-M730 & RH-M732 hubs by themselves or a tidy Wheelset with Mavic, Araye rims etc. These will be the last main components I need for my ‘91 Specialized project…. Anything out there, must be tidy, mint ideally but not necessarily nos….

I’ve a NOS set of Shimano spd pedals…. PD-M525’s, boxed, axle tool, cleats etc 👍

Hi, I’m looking for a really nice pair or Deore DX flat pedals for my original ‘91 Stumpjumper … mint/nos (I can dream🤣) condition ideally . Happy to purchase or trade for my NOS DX SPD’s or NOS XT Shark Fins …. Cheers 👍

First you need to check the back of the cassette you are fitting. If it has 3 rivet head protrusions you need the spacer with the three cut outs …. If the underside of the cassette is flat, use the same spacer can be used 👍 Link below...

Fir M123 32 hole rims (have the lower protruding brake track lip to keep the brake pads from slipping down the rim) on XT M737 hubs. Hubs lovely and smooth as I’ve stripped and regreased them with Shimano bearing grease. Very tidy Wheelset, nice and true, rims are healthy and aren’t badly worn...

Gutted about this as I’d been after a 17” frame for ages…. Parted out my 19” in the end as I’d given up on finding a smaller frame. Having done a similar overhaul myself I can appreciate the time and effort that goes into restoring these frames…. Sadly I’m not in the market at the moment as I’m...

Thanks bram, sorry to hear that your BV has ended up worse for wear after so many years of service…😩 things can be replaced and repaired 👍 Google has always helped in terms of looking for parts, you just need to put in some time searching but the likes of eBay and marketplace often come up...

Hi, this Marin Alpine Trail has been donated to a charity (St. David’s Hospice) where my brother works… Any help putting a value on it as it will be sold to help raise funds for the charity. It appears barely ridden…. These are the images I’ve been given… Thanks in advance👍
