cool video on pinkbike about Ned Overend's 1992 Specialized Stumpjumper M2 and the technology changes

That brought back some memories! Thanks for posting.
Yeah, those are the days.
I want that new S-Works Epic.
Yep that Epic is crisp. Loved the bit about the brakes and the front mech
cheers for that. Was riding my M2 (1998) yesterday as it happens, been out on it quite a bit recently; back in love with 24 speed and front suspension. It is quick 🙂
[ though it's a Trigger's broom of an M2, original frame and cranks and that's it I think !! ]
Disappointed by lack of facial hair
Looks like his mole was removed.
I miss my old M2, the headtube parted company with the top tube when I crashed into the back of my buddy, had absolutely nothing to do with the massive un-noticed crack that was there from doing stair gap-jumps the day before with a pair of Judy XLs bolted on the front, no Sir, not a thing... 😳
It was a great bike though, super quick and nimble, and surprisingly tough!
I currently have two (!) both Mango or thereabouts in colour.
Still see them around at events, unlikely ever to dispose of the one owned from new, it'd be like giving away a kidney..
My wife still has a S-works M2 in the cellar. My god it's stiffer than a stiff thing!
bloody hell the channel is FAB (the pro's closet on yt).
looks like i'll be watching a few videos now 😉
another one that's fab
Enjoyed that but why have they got Tony Blair to play the part of Deadly Nedly?
Agreed about the channel I've ended up watching loads . Loved the Giant ATX, I remember lusting after one of those as an 18 year old . A wooden rear mech!
