Got talking to a friendly chap on a Facebook group who knows a thing or two about vintage Stumpys.
We got comparing frames and I mentioned that my Stumpy Sport frame doesn't have mounts on the seat tube for a water bottle, nor does it have mounts on the chainstay or seat stay bridges for a fender.
He asked for the serial number and I posted a pic. He mentioned that it doesn't look like a normal specialized serial number from that era, and after a google, I can't seem to find any other similar serial numbers for 83 Stumpjumpers.
If anyone has any further info i'd love to know a bit more! Pic below. Serial number: 03 BRY
