Gravy Monster is right!

The Stumpjumper is from 1982. Serialnumber is M2L63059. Which makes it from December 1982 according to Mombat's list (http://mombat.org/Specialized.htm).

Very happy with it!

I think this one will be a slow build as I would like to get it completely period correct! It's going to be my quest!! :lol:

Got the Suntour ARX mechs and a nice Campagnolo headset. The original headset is included, but not sure if it's still any good....
