I had no idea what to do with this rusty 1989 Stumpjumper Comp, so this rainy weekend, I just threw the content of my parts pile at it. Turns out, the old Suntour alpha thumbies fit a drop bar just fine without modification. First test ride was wicked fun, with a shorter stem it will even be comfortable.

Nice! How did you add the stem and remove the quilt?
