New bike arrived today, courtesy of vincenth - a 1995 Stumpjumper M2 
Spent the afternoon putting the together after being carefully packaged for shipping - a quick spin round town & love it! First time using Magura brakes & surprised how much stopping power these have. Everything else works great as well - in awesome condition given its 25 years old!
It is a touch on the big side for me with a 20.5" frame, but think a 20mm shorter stem should sort that out. I know it's not period correct but may also opt for a wider bar - cannot believe this used to be the norm (with many going even narrower!)
