Bought something for my wife......! Well, that's my excuse! :wink:

I found this one and it is completely original, so I couldn't resist. And I don't think €90 is too much for it! Hopefully my wife will enjoy it!

A link to the 1993 Specialized catalogue:

Here are the first pics of it. Only changed the grips for NOS Specialized ones. Need to do some cleaning and it needs a new saddle. Everything is original, even the tires!!! Need to replace those too! :wink:

Thanks guys!

Yeah, I think it looks very nice and allmost unused! Allthough, that's according to the pics. In flesh it's always a bit different, we will see! I think it will arrive tomorrow! It looks like it's 100% original! :D

The blue decal is some kind of sponsor (?!?), will delete that asap!

I've seen this on MP (offcourse :roll: )
Never seen this colourscheme before, is this a special paintjob?

No, just the standard colors from the 1993 M2: violett-metallic / smaragd-metallic!

Nice stumpie!

In my opinion It's wonderful to find a classic mtb with the original components. Add a great price such 90€ and you can be very very satistfied.

Congratulations.

What a deal for a nice classic race machine. M2 - the frame made famous by the lung back in the good old days.

Enjoy!
