    1997 Marin Hawk Hill restomod - not one for the purists!

    i will see what i can do. the other frame is currently on a rack in the shed as its my baby and i have had it for about 25 years and dont have the heart to sell it or get rid of it. it did take alot of measuring and cutting and filing to get it to fit. but it wasnt that difficult to be honest...

    if you want i can get pictures of the other conversion i did. it was a much better job than the one i did on my Giant. but i could only fit a 140mm disc on the back of my Handsome dog frame due to the shape of the chainstays.

    1997 Marin Hawk Hill restomod - not one for the purists!

    WTB Thickskick

    they have got to be this cheap to get people to buy some so the receivers can try to get some money to pay off all the debts. nice tyres though. not sure what they would be like on my commute of 8 miles on a dark, wet, cold evening ?
