I have a well-used '94 Specialized Stumpjumper Pro that I bought new back in '95. It originally was set up rigid although I swapped out the rigid fork for a Manitou 3 (elastomers now well and truly shot). I recently found the original fork and so I'm considering getting rid of the whole shootin' match. I broke the whole bike down so I could store it in a closet and I did have the intention of parting it out. Now I'm wondering if I should clean it up and rebuild it and sell it whole, or go ahead and part it out. Of the original equipment specced on the bike, it still as the Suntour thumb shifters and front derailleur, while the rear derailleur is a later XT replacement (ca. 1997?), and the cranks are a later Suntour replacement that replaced the original smaller but worn out Microdrive cranks. Wheels are replacements but the stem and bar are original. Brakes are also replacement Tektro cantis from sometime back around maybe '97 as well. The frame is sound if a bit scratched up here and their. It's the Tange Prestige cro-mo frame, not the later M2 aluminum frame. Thoughts, suggestions?

Id try to sell it whole on craigs list. I don't think those components are very sought after. You'll probably get more from somebody who just wants a ride able bike immediately.

Our markets are probably different, but as a point of contrast, I have a '91 on craigslist now that's not attracting much interest at $160. I had a few bites initially, but they weren't serious. I have a feeling it would have sold by now if not for the approaching holidays.
