This winter I am going to rebuild my 1996 Specialized Stumpjumper so that means I am going to buy a new suspension fork, some tires, maybe some shifters for it...I think I have the rest.
I'm going to be selling my Sam Hillborne since I bought a sweet dual suspension mountain bike and kinda need the space. So that means taking that apart or at least taking some of the racks, bags, lights ect. off it. I'm also going to be selling many of my other frames and parts I have laying around collecting dust. Time to clean out the house and have this stuff go to someone who will use it. I'm not really doing anymore touring or commuting anymore, and that was really what I set the Hillborne up as after getting the Roadeo built to be my go fast bike. With the money from all that selling I am going to be buying a Hunqapillar or get a custom mountain mixte made by Riv. Probably will go the Hunq route.....although I could be talked into a Bombadil. Either way, it's going to be a fine trail bike without suspension.
