    1989 Specialized Stumpjumper

    Thanks. Mostly availability, partly post rationalisation (I had only one CSS, and it made sense to put it out back). I agree it's a pity you can't easily get the CSS rims any more.

    1989 Specialized Stumpjumper

    So, here's what I did to this. It's my first ever restomod – something I don't usually do, but wanted an everyday commuter with a long-distance touring vibe. Apart from the stem length/height (still deciding), and the overlong brake cable, and racks ...this is now finished. All new parts on a...

    For Sale Stem/bar - from early 70s Raleigh ‘Sports’

    Solid, bit pitted and rusty. Salvageable though, and provenance guaranteed. It came off my mum’s old bike, sadly no longer with us (the bike, not my mum …she’s fine). Anyway, it’s free to anyone who wants it. Cost of postage only.

    1991 Stumpjumper Comp, NOS Frame & Fork

    It's an inspiring build - it's not always about period-correct! Did the 11-speed cassette fit easily on the Chris King hub? I might give something similar a try.

    Going tubeless ... the daunting made easy ...

    Very helpful, thanks @2manyoranges. I'm tubeless on my more modern bikes and the benefits are real - hardly ever puncture, tyre performance weight, etc. Might now try it on my older bikes, using this guide.

    About to start a restoration on this - bought last summer. Think it’s an 88, but no U brake so maybe an 89?
