1985 pink
Specialized Team Stumpjumper
The iconic pink team Stumpjumper, the first production 'Team' racing mountain bike. Made from Tange double-butted Prestige tubing, it came with Shimano's original Deore group. This one's been completely upgraded.
Jim Merz, who was a framebuilder at Specialized and built the originals, filled me in on a couple of details, this bike is from the first batch and had narrower chainstays, so it was limited to 26x 1.95 tires. The later versions took wider MTB tires.
As you see it here, the bike weighs 23 lbs. Contact us for details.

So why a Walmart bike? Because it highlights the work we can do. Anyone can take an Italian racing bike or a British touring frame and bling it out. In our opinion this bike was worthy of such treatment. A light stylish curvy aluminum frame. And this bike did not let us down. It's fast, stylish, durable, and above all, comfortable. It fits our philosophy.
The jewels are out there if you know where to look.
