1992 Specialized Stumpjumper. Found mostly stock (except for tires and sticky grips). Converted to "dad's bike" for when we visit the in-laws.

I like that:
-it's one of the few if not the only Stumpjumper with eyelets for racks
-the original catalogue said it could accommodate 2.5" tires. Not so sure about that, but it can accept 2.25" tires and mudguards easily, not bad for an early 90's bike...

Spec had their own 2.5" tyre, the Ground Control More Extreme. Not sure if it was a true 2.5" tyre but not what we see as 2.5" tyres nowadays. They weren't lying though.

Hmmm, green, that won’t look good when it’s a few years old!
