Clems go live in a week, and I’m long chain stay curious. Problem is, I have a Clem adjacent bike already… So, does anyone here want a really great MTB conversion?

Looking for $800
Located in Edmonds, WA.

Details:

  • 1988 Specialized Stumpjumper frame. 23” frame, 33.5” standover. Underwent a bare metal respray and a thorough frame saver treatment. New Velo-cals decals under a few layers of clear coat. The paint has seen some wear since the initial build. The most noticeable being the top tube burn through. If it really bugs you, you can get a top tube protector.

  • 26 inch Sun Rhyno Lite rims with Deore hubs + Compass/Rene Herse Rat Trap Pass tire

  • Velo Orange stainless steel fenders. They're more sturdy than the aluminum ones, so you don't have to deal with them moving and rubbing the tires

  • 3x9 Deore drivetrain paired with bar end shifters in friction mode

  • Sugino triple crank. I stripped the anodizing and polished them at the time of the build

  • Nitto Bosco bars w/ fancy wrap job (a la Blue Lug)

  • Parts bin stem and seat post that I stripped and polished

  • -Tektro FL750 brake levers

  • Velo Orange Porteur rack w/ Wald 139 basket

  • The crispiest Brooks B66 of all time, also the most cush saddle I’ve ever sat on (I’m happy to keep this relic if it sketches you out)

  • Olive Carradice saddle bag and Carradice bag support

Hey this is a very sick bike, I would be looking for ways to keep it and add a Clem to go along with it. 

Regardless of what you do wishing you luck. That's a nice price for what you've built up there.

Thanks! I was hoping the price might lead to a quick sale, but we'll see. It does everything I would want a Clem to do, so if it doesn't sell in the next few days I might change my mind. I try to keep a 1 in, 1 out policy with bikes these days.
