Hey all no serious offers so far on the whole package stumpjumper with no shipping so will go to a different strategy. I am willing to part it out if someone wants the frame, shifters, brakes and drive train only I can ship them for fairly cheap. I can then sell the bosco bars and nitto technomic delux separately as well. the wheels are the only item that costs a lot to ship but if someone wants a set from a 92 MB2 message me and we will talk. Thinking $300 for the frame, shifters, brakes and drive train. $50 for the bosco bars and $40 for the stem. The only caveat is I cant part it out until someone first buys the frame. Thanks for helping me get on better with the wife who looks at the bike every day and says "another ****@%ing bike".....

Again its a 1983, fully lugged with the biplane fork, 22 inch, I think the biggest one they made that year. I bought it off a list member in perfect condition, minus the usual collection of scrapes and installed a  Rivved out-cockpit with Cromo 55cm Bosco Bars, 130mm Technomic Deluxe stem. I changed out the cables to all Jagwire Hyper. I also swapped out the old wheelset for a set I had from a 1992MB2. So now its a 7 speed, just had to snug the 130mm wheel into the 128mm dropouts. Full deerhead components Brake pads are like new, all wires replaced. Slapped on some Fat Franks for around town riding. Standover with the fat franks is about 85cm.  TT is 58cm.

Peter,

I know you may have posted this somewhere else, but how much were you seeking for the whole bike, and would you be willing to ship? 

Where are you located?

Thanks,

Tim

I was looking at $450 for the bike but that was unshipped. I am in Brooklyn NY where its unfortunately pretty pricey to ship from. Would be about $75 shipped due to the wheels but I could work with you on that if you were interested. I really just need to part with it before my wife kills me. Where are you located, if its not coast to coast it would be significantly cheaper.

2 smaller boxes are cheaper to ship than a big bike box especially when each box is under the magic 108" number that usps uses

True I do have a bike box that is for a frame only and wheel box. but the wheelbox is pretty beat up. I guess I could rehab it. I would still think its gonna run about $75 though. I shipped a whole bike to CA last year from UPS and it was $130 but have now learned about box sizes and that FedEx is considerably cheaper. The USPS here doest take oversize packages so I would have to take a car service to the other post office which would eat into the shipping cost. No car lifestyle does have its down side.

Hey Peter- thanks for the info. I am out in Seattle, so I will pass. Good luck parting it out, I know someone somewhere will put the frame to good use. 

Thanks for the info nonetheless.

Tim
