My Hardrock dadbike
I picked this up on marketplace for $50. I got her running again with some new tires, brake levers and various purple additions to go with the Hardrock logo. This is gonna be my dad bike for the foreseeable future while my daughter learns to ride her bike.
1991 Stumpjumper M2 Team Info & Value
Looking to see if anybody has more info on this bike i got off marketplace recently.
From the research i have done it seems to be a 1991 stumpjumper m2 team.
there is little about this specific spec online and it seems quite rare. (500 made?)
I was wondering if this would have value to anybody as i'd feel guilty adding unoriginal parts if it is as rare as it seems.
I've added screenshots of the information i've found online.
thank you
1992 DadRock
Finished building up this ‘92 Hardrock Ultra frameset that I recently found. Really digging this build and how well she rides.
My 1995 Rockhopper build. Adding small things in the future.
First trail ride on my hardrock
Rode the gravel path in my town that connects all the technical trails. Definitely feels like I havnt ridden i bike in a decade. I can tell now ill also need some taller handle bars, im 6'5" and had my neck cranked back the whole time.
New To Rockhoppers
Got my wife an anniversary gift to mod together. This is how I bought it. I’ve seeing peoples builds with these 80s and 90s mountain bikes and I really dig the look of them. My knowledge about bikes is limited and now after reading posts I think I might have messed up getting a bike with a u-brake. I didn’t know about them before this haha the bike rides great tho and everything functions smoothly. I guess we’ll see when it’s time for repairs 😅
Guess the year? Improvement suggestions?
I found this rockhopper comp on a second hand market. Could you guess its year of production? I will definitely change the tires. Which addictional improvement do you suggest?
Can anyone guess the size of this? Looking to buy
Love this little bike but was wondering what size it might be. I’m 6’2 and it looks a bit small
NBD: 94ish Rockhopper
Picked this beauty up Friday morning, spent the entire day on a tear down/ clean/ grease (+chain, grips, pedals, cables, seat and post). Hit the trails on Saturday!
New to me stumpjumper
Picked this up yesterday and have been enjoying taking this older bike on new adventures. Can anyone confirm what year this frame is? I think it’s a 1997.
Compatible wheels
Hi everybody, recently picked this up for $20 off of Facebook marketplace and I want to get commute ready. I decided to remove the rear wheel and replace it as the axle was too wide and was stretching the frame. This is where my dilemma begins. For the life of me I cannot find a set of used 26 inch wheels, so I am looking at expanding my options. Any help is appreciated!
I should end this by saying this is my first bike with more than one speed and I am learning as I go. Cheers!
91’ Specialized Rockhopper - Single speed
Probably blasphemous to some, but I love it!
Starting point
Someone gifted me this bike a couple years ago and ive decided to get it running. Ill need tires that handle well on gravel roads and a new saddle. But im an absolute newb to bicycles. Any tips would be greatly appreciated
