As promised - here they are - the Stumpjumpers.
You'll see there's a theme going on here.
Pace Forks, Hope in abundance, USE seatposts.
The King headset on the modern bike was supposed to go on the old one - but the 2-nut kit never arrived from Aspire.... As a nod to the original plan, I put it on the new one.
The old one - Kaiser's resprayed 94 Comp - Mostly stuff I took of my MT3 when it died, but a few nods to the original Kaiser build - red seatpost, bars and wotnot. Suntour transmission except the 6400 rear mech, Hope hubs, QRs and BB, original RS1s and Pace chainrings, bars and forks.
The modern one - 10 years on - a 2004 Stumpjumper FSR with USE Alien, RC40s and BETD rocker giving 130mm at both ends, and most of the kit off my RC303... Hope Pro IIs, Mini Monos and M770XT transmission
Together....
