Looking good Allard!

Re: my beast

Every week someone tries to buy it from me. But no deal this is my baby.

But unless you're over 6'6" (and judging by the saddle height, you're not) you'd be better off with a much smaller frame...

i agree but i can't find anything like it in smaller frame. I have looked everywhere.

I've just finished this 1992 Stumpjumper. Couple of tweaks before I'll consider it 'complete', but I'm riding it as it is for now.

This is my S-Works steel frame from about '94. I had the frame refinnished to make sure all the, if there where any, rust spots are treated. I then put in that horrible framesaver stuff to protect the inside...

That's beautiful, Allard; I would not change a thing except the saddle. Di you make a reader's ride thread on this?
