Re: Marin Eldridge Grade in original spec. Orderly PM queue forming...

Re: 95 Marin Muirwoods Hairspray does stick them down but I'm happy with that; I had one slightly rotate/slip/deform on a steep slow descent and for that millisecond I didn't like it at all. If they weren't as cheap as they are I might think twice about maybe having to cut them off but in...

What size frame are you after? I have a 19" 92 Pine Mountain (Black & Orange) frameset which is too big for me. It's actually in reasonable condition. I'll pop up a picture when I get in. edit: didn't see where you were!

The Cinder Cone I've just let loose back into the wild... It's replacement, a 90 Lava Dome, is in a sorry state and refuses to be photographed.

I have the same one as yours. I got the frameset in the spring for a snip, mainly because of snapped steerer and a stuck seat post; a bit of freeze and shock and a table vice sorted that in 5 minutes. I've liberated a fork from one of the other Zolatones I've "collected" over the past year...

If you get a respray/powdercoat for the bars I'd be interested in who you use. Hot Pink seems to be the closest RAL colour name for the pink but I haven't seen it up close to do a comparison. I spoke to a few people including LSN Coatings in Castleford, I was basically quoted a £10/piece...

Re: 95 Marin Muirwoods I use Ritchey WCS foam grips on my Marin's. They look like the originals and are actually pretty good. They're about £8.50 a pair and Halfords have them in their multi-buy sale pretty much every 2 weeks. Use a bit of hairspray on the bar and inside the grip to get them...

1st Year Marin's inc 94 Team Issue (&Kona) The Kona

After seeing one of my old frames beginning a new life on here I thought I'd pop up a few I've rebuilt over the last 12 months -I bought my first, a 95 Marin Bear Valley SE, about this time last year, since then I've had a great time rebuilding the frames/rides I've picked up. Today I also...

Didn't really expect to see this again! to say the bike had been loved to death would have be an understatement! When I picked it up it barely had anything original on it, Zoom stem, M750 levers and shifters, Avid Rivals brakes and some horrible DOTEK crank. I put what DX/LX I had on it and...

Re: That's the reason I asked, I bought that listing and hadn't seen it before -for a tenner I thought it was worth picking it up. I actually quite like it. Might have to fade a 900/910 RD to match.

Re: It's a light silver block behind the logo, but with the "standard" silver logo as seen on the m900. It looks like this: http://1.1.1.1/bmi/i.ebayimg.com/00/s/M ... YJ/$_1.JPG Poor picture, but it is not the metallic blue block seen on the m900. I can post a picture when I get in if...

Pretty much as the title says, was the m910 RD ever released with the silver finish that the top pull 901 was? Cheers

Has anyone got any info experience of a Kestrel MX-Z? Is there anything to look out for? There's one up for sale here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kestrel-MX-Z- ... 781891254?

Re: XTR RD M-900 Rear Derailleur & XTR BR M-900 Cantilever brake Did the canti's go? If not, do you still have the pad holders that go with them?

Re: I spoke to the guy when it was listed (and bid), not much history on the bike. There's pretty much nothing on eng language websites about it; a bit in Canada. Similar spec ones seem to go for around $50CAD -despite the spec, don't know if that reflects on the brand or quality of the...

I have a 93 topanga frameset in Blue/Black sat in the cupboard with wavy splatter effect.

I quite like it as well but it's coming up a bit small for a 16". My other half is about 5'7 and after riding that and a larger Marin tonight it looks like the Kona is going to get stripped and packed away. I might rebuild it as a project if/when I come across some suitable forks. All in all...

Thanks, looks like the race assembly is original with a replacement lock nut and spacer.
