looking for a simple steel mtb for my wife, probabaly a 14 or 16 inch

i have in mind an entry level, early 90s bike

You might want to PM Ringo. He has a mid-90s Marin in a small size. I forget the model though...

I have a Specialized Stumpjumper frame and forks 15.5 inch light to a darker green fade colour, think its a 91 or 92, £65 posted, any good?

That's sound very good,

Had in mind something lower down the food chain, as a finished bike, but another build would be okay

could you send me a photo please

Many thanks

Got this 1991 Saracen Ltd Edition, 16.5" Tange double butted cro-mo with the parts you see in the photo except for the front brake cable & bottle cage now removed. Would like to get £25 for it + postage costs.

thats meeting the criteria - sorry for being fussy but whats the paint like and is it quite short in the top tube?

 

[jimbo-xc]

paint is not brilliant, definitely showing it's age. Top tube is about 21" Stem is long so you could fit a shorter one. Front brake cable routes through it & is there still.

Hi, I have a 93, 16" Lava dome that will be complete pretty soon
Tange MTB, thumbies and Marzocci XC51s. Used but not abused.
If you can wait a week or so I will have something to photo.

Cheers
