The only original part was the front hub. By the time the above had become this (around 2014)
even the wheel from the original Stumpjumper was gone, as were most of the parts that had been replaced on the second Stumpjumper.
Then the Rockhopper became this (2017)
And even that didn’t stay that way for long.
Even now, the Dean is changed somewhat from the above picture.
