I've gotten a hold of an early 80s Stumpjumper Sport that appears to be practically unridden. Deer head derailleurs, specialized cranks and hubs. Lugged at the headtube and lugged unicrown fork. Super long chainstays. I think it will make a great substitute for an Atlantis or Bombadil type of touring bike. I'm thinking the Compass 26" tires, or maybe Big Apples, with fenders, and drop bars. This came from the Harding Elementary School Dad's Club. I could do a conversion and then try to sell it, but first I wanted to float it here to see if anyone in the Bay Area was thinking of doing something like this and wanted to have the fun for themselves. Let me know if you think you'd like the shot at this. I'm thinking that $400 made out to Harding Elementary School would be enough to keep me from building a bombproof touring bike out of this. Let me know if you want a crack at it. Here's the photo set:
