SOLD : V cool 23" 1989 Specialized Rockhopper part build w/ Nitto / Paul / Pace / Halo bits (may split)

OK this is having to make way for another bike so here goes...

1989 Specialized Rockhopper Comp - a rare 23" frame hand stripped by myself, polished back and clear coated. See below for pic of bike built up recently.

Selling as a rolling chassis - If nobody wants the whole lot then i'll be splitting it up so DM or comment if there are certain parts you fancy and i'll make a note. Or if there's some bits you want and some bits you don't we can work it out.

Including:

1989 Pace RC30 fork - New longer steerer custom made by a guy who used to work at Pace

• Original fork included - stripped and sanded back
  
  

Nitto x Rivendell bullmoose handlebars (the fillet brazed version) - some scuffs but still beautiful

Tange sealed headset - barely any use

Paul Funky Monkey canti hanger - pretty much new

Nitto rear cable hanger

Shimano square taper BB - not mega smooth but no play

Seatpost - pretty generic but it fits!

Front Wheel - 98 GT Barrel hub on Halo White Lines, DT butted spokes, Schwalbe Racing Ray 26X2.25 (folding / tubeless / addix compound)

Rear wheel - Shimano Parrallax on Halo White Lines, DT butted spokes, Schwalbe Rocket Ron 26X2.25
(folding / tubeless / addix compound)

£325 for the lot

I'm based in Newcastle but can ship if necessary no bother.

I also have a set of Mafac cantis (front is the rarer wide profile tandem version) with Kool Stop Eagle 2 pads and some Suntour XC Sport mechs available.

Dang! I would take this off your hands immediately if I were still in the UK. Such a sick build. GLWS!

Lovely… sorry to be the first, but if split, could I take the handlebar pending price?
The RC30 fork would fetch a decent penny on its own over somewhere like Retrobike, probably £100-plus.

Yeah, the fork is amazing - though probably not many 180cm headtube bikes out there it would fit in as it is!

Nice! Can I ask how tall you are? I’ve always found 21/22” frames a bit small but 23” sounds huge

i'm 6'4" and it fit me really nice

This is lovely. GLWS.
