It's been in a header - the top tube and down tube are damaged behind the head tube lugs. It's a bummer really 'cause otherwise it's a real nice bike. I don't think I'd feel right selling it to...

I hate to be a buzz-kill, but you'd have to be putting together a very complete collection to want a Hammer in it, it was not a high-end or special bike. It was very very popular though, as it was...

I knew this bike would be appreciated. It's a tricky situation: due to the damage as a complete bike it's not worth enough to bother shipping to someone, I don't think that I'd be comfortable...

There were aluminum models as well, I think this is one of 'em. All the carbon ones I saw had the weave showing.

This is a ALR 1, a carbon one would be a CFR something depending on spec.

Awesome Stumpjumper! I never knew they came in an orange like that, it's almost the same as on my Rockhopper, my first real mountain bike.

I hope I come across one of those one day soon.

That is a VERY nice looking bicycle. "Bicycle" seems more appropriate than "bike" for some reason, classy ride.

I think this might be a catch, it's a Proctor, who seems to be a custom builder from Edmonton. It's pretty beaten, component-wise, but the selection of choice, high-end parts and perfectly...
