New Stumpjumper build, was considering a no frills affair but have enough stuff lying about to bedeck it with trinkets Still gonna try to keep a kinda hardcoreish feel to it. Frame will be shimmed to accept the 1" stuff I have then its of to the powder coaters.

Big thanks to Jones for the frame will post some kit later

What year is this frame? I have an identical one in garage.

I'm guessing its a 94 though have no confirmation. Theres a 94 in the serial number and the headtube is 1 1/8", will have to look into it a bit more but reckon the steel frames must have been on their way out at this point as the 94 catalogue shows M2's as well. Can't find the colour though in a catalogue.

Last steel frames were made in 1998 .

I'd guess at 95 or even 96, no later as it has a cable noodle on the seat tube

Cheers guys the catalogues in the gallery show a couple of suspects, any ideas over serial numbers?
