Specialized M2 Frame
Can anyone point me to a spec or give me info on a Specilized M2 stumpjumper S Works frame. Not sure of the exact year of manufacture but it was one of the last to be made in the USA. I'm looking at one on ebay and was particularly keen to confirm the headstock size.
Any other thoughts / experience with this frame would be appreciated, particularly repainting as I understand it can be a struggle the make paint stick to the M2 composite.
Thanks

I had my M2 bead blasted and powdercoated two years ago and it still looks great. The Big S will tell you that if you paint it on your own you will void the warranty, they will refer you an authorized painter. I did it on my own.
