Everything started (again) some months ago, while looking for some period accessories for my 1989 HardRock Comp. Then this popped up…

“Wait, is that a Stumpie?” I wasn’t really looking for a stumpjumper but I started wondering: “how hard would it be to find a team stumpjumper?” Then an alert popped up on my screen: someone’s selling a 1988 Team Stumpjumper, listed as “very old stumpjumper MBT”. Turns out the seller knew what a Stumpjumper is but missed the “team” part and we both ended up with a good deal.
Here’s how it was the day I picked it up

I’m still not sure what I’m going to do with it but I mean to keep the thread updated…

I’d love one.

Time to actually do something with this project. Today I brought it back from storage, quick assessment pictures and started working on some accessories.

Deore XT hoods are obviously sticky



what’s the odd these are the original pads?
