Specialized Stumpjumper FSR XC Comp 1998

HI guys, newbie here, just thought i would post some pics of my new retro ride.

As far as i am aware, the only items that are not original are the rear shock, the original shock was leaking and i had to replace it. The grips and bar ends were a bit tatty so i refreshed those. Its been a while since i rode a bike (used to race) and i was pleasantly surprised after my first ride on her. Hope you all agree its not a bad example.

Lovely example that. Bet it's fairly light too?

 

[jonesy55]

yeah it certainly feels it, not entirely sure of the weight. I will have to get it on the scales.

Has anybody got any info on what this bike was new?? Or what the overall claimed weight was?
