‘89 Marin Bear Valley spec list/ photos?

[Daddy Giraffe]

Calling early Marin fans.. can anybody give an accurate original component spec for an 89 BV? I picked one up locally recently and I’m assuming a mix of Mountain LX, DX and Mavic/XT is a fair way from standard..
Also any catalogue pics or similar would be great to see.
Thanks in advance

Groupset was all Mountain LX. Rims were Araya RX7 ?, I forget the exact model but definitely Araya. Tyres I have seen both Marin Rockstar and combos fitted. I have a couple myself to restore as I have a soft spot for them as it was my first decent bike. Somewhere I have the Bear Valley page from the 89 brochure but need to find it and will scan it when I do.

Have a look in the Archive section (tab at the top of the page), Marin catalogues are all there.

I have only seen catalogues from ‘91-on in the archive.
