1991 Euro Marin Pine Mountain

Here's my euro-spec 1991 Pine Mountain.

Sourced via Swiss ebay from a lovey man who lives in the next village over from where my parents used to live.
He owned it from new, and has hardly ridden it due to having other more impressive bikes - and then sadly a motorbike accident.
He was genuinely really happy it was going to find a new home with someone who loves this era of Marins 😃

Other than the grips, all parts are original - including the inner tubes - he says.
It has been sitting in my parent's friends garage for some months, until they decided to visit the UK by car this week.

Took it for an initial spin around my local single track before work this morning ... which happens to be the mini MTB course on the Olympic Park 😂
Time for a few photos and then back in the garage. Feels a bit cheeky that I really didn't have to do anything to this bike other than tweak the brakes and pump the tyres...
