    Today's Ride

    Re: MY GT single speed. I built it up out of leftover bits recently and love riding it. Can't identify the frame origins tho. Has one set of bottle cage bolts, a rear U brake and brazed on seat clamp. Oh and it's really bloody small. Love riding it though. If anyone knows what the hell it was...

    1989 Marin Bear Valley-----SOLD

    Re: 1989 Marin Bear Valley Now we're talking. My favourite generation of Marin. I remember reading a magazine article over and over of a review on these when they first came out. Style made me think of an off-road Record Sprint. Love it.

    Re: Lovely looking bike :) Are those Citijets skinwall or Camberwell? Just ordered a set of skins for mine and thought they'd look lighter.

    I am rebuilding a set of standard doer cantilevers and need the plate that the grub screw pushed round inside the cantilever body. Looks like a washer with notching in it. What's it called and does anyone know where I can find one?

    1988 Marin Pine Mountain restoration

    Re: This is before they went to the satin finish paint isn't it? Loved these at the time. That era of Marin just before they all got the stone guard type paint were all great looking bikes imho.

    Can I restore pedals with no nut inside the cap?

    Got a set of union rat trap steel pedals, mid 80s and need to take up the play in them. I've got them off the bike and pulled the end cap off one only to be faced with what looks like a blind riveted/deformed surface washer where there would normally be a nut. I'd really like to reuse these...

    Reminds me of an old Ascent EX I had. Yellow one, BB mounted U brake, etc. Put the biggest, chunkiest tyres I could find on it. Sounded like a bloody Land Rover.
