I love me a workhorse Specialized, especially a Stumpy . I'm really jones'ing for an M2 from this era, I remember longingly looking at them in the window of my LBS *ahhhh..memories, eh?*

Nice spec. Pauls, Avid Ti, XTR..........

And these M2 frame are well deserving of it too.

Very nice.

Not entirely sure about the forks though! What travel they running at?

If you EVER sell it, Im VERY intrested in the frame!

Those frames look sooo retro yet modern :? but when their specced well they just look amazing ..
