Love the video! I just picked up an 89 stump jumper from craigslist, and it’s from the same bike shop as yours! I live in Boulder, Colorado so it didn’t travel nearly as far as yours 😅. The bike shop still exists at the same address and with the same number as the one on your sticker, pretty wild.

Just renovated a mid 90's Specialized Stump Jumper I wasn't sure if it was worth the time and expense. This video cleared all my misgiving Good job

Lovely resto bike. Great channel! Using your videos as inspiration for the old Bolinas Ridge I'm resto-modding into a shop/commuter ride. Subscribed👍

Restoring a vintage bicycle is relaxing and fulfilling. I've had the pleasure of building two vintage steel mountain bikes. I bought both frames on ebay, shopped for parts, built two good looking and highly fun-to-ride bikes. I watched several videos like your before taking the plunge. Watching you build your old Specialized bike was a most enjoyable 23 minutes.

Repainting a bike is challenging. The first time I did it I ended up doing a bad job and took the paint off and did it again. I nearly gave up on the whole project because of it.

Brilliant custom paint job. Going retro colours I would of used neon yellow cable housing and neon yellow handle bar grips as the fishing touches to the retro paint them.

I just picked up an 89 Stumpjumper Team that needs a paint refresh. Same paint scheme as your’s except it’s so sunfaded that the front fork which was magenta is now offwhite. It’s actually too big for me (22 I think) so will probably pass it along after the rebuild.

Hey! It’s a DIY bracket but there’s one called the “Gamoh rack adaptor”

You did an excellent job ;) I'd love to have a bicycle like this one, where can I obtain one?

I wonder where he gets all those old moutainbikes with the huge frame sizes. All the old 26" mtb frames I have founs so far are tiny, I recently bougt one on ebay. The decals even say "oversizeed" but compared to a normal 28" city- or trekking bike it looks like a child bike. I also looked for some new 26" mtb frames, but its the same, they are sold as XL but are much too small for me.

Love this build! Getting me very excited for a project GT I have. I'm curious about the front rack brackets you used. Is there a place to buy these online or did you fabricate them yourself?
