M2 with 1-1/2 OD head tube seems like it would be 1-1/8 ID with 1/8 inch tube wall. M2 was higher end so even for Speciailized that would make since. Worth the road trip.

There is some overlap with 1" Stumpjumpers and the switch to Aluminum M2 frames, I have a purple/green fade M2 that is 1".
I think the first year or maybe two of the M2 frames were still 1" headtube.
