Have looked at a 2006 specialized carbon stuntjumper. I am more in to roadbiking and have a 2010 sworks sl3. I plan to do the leadville 50 and want to train and hit some hills around here but will still focus on the road.
800 bucks gets me a solid frame with no apparent damage. Appears to have shimano xd components off of a 08 hardtail. Stan's front and rear wheels.
Should i buy a newer frame but maybe a non-sworks or is the price good enough to justify the older bike? I am not really asking if the price is good but more or less if I should go a different direction in terms of my needs versus cash outlay versus value. So in a way i an asking about price. But it isnt my main concern.
