Just curios if anyone knows of an adapter for a 1999 StumpJumper Comp hardtail frame without disc brake tabs, that doesn't require a special hub or anything weird like that.

Thanks.

Since Specialized sharkfins are nearly impossible to find anymore, I'd suggest the A2Z DM-UNI adapter:

On the high end, the Therapy Components adapter is the ultimate-but-spendy solution:

I've used the DM-UNI on a 2000ish Trek 8000 and it worked great. I did have to trim here and there but I can attest that it does work. Unfortunately, I bought the AD-PMR first and it did not work.
