With a heavy heart I'm selling my singlespeed project based on a 91/92 Marin Muirwoods with the iconic Zolatone/fluro green colour scheme.
The paint isn't pristine, there are chips and knocks as you'd expect for a 20 odd year old bike that's actually been riddden all it's life but it's by no means a beater. The worst mark is on the seat tube where it looks like a d-lock clamp used to live (will post pic of this area later). There are also no decals as you can see.
If it sounds like I'm talking her down I'm just trying to be honest about the condition, she's a lovely bike to ride and with the "instant memory throwback" colour scheme she's a joy to have in the cave and will be sadly missed. However needs must and I need to raise funds for something new (sssshhhh, don't mention the 'M' word).
Frame size is:
Seat Tube c/c - 17.5"
Top Tube c/c - 21.5"
Now splitting out for parts, prices below are for paypal gift and include postage.

Frame: 1991/92 Marin Muirwoods frame, forks & Stem with nearly identical colour matched unbranded bars, Ritchey True Grip grips, black Kalloy seatpost, Marin seat binder & Shimano bottom bracket. £40
Black LX chainset, good condition with 22 & 42 rings (no middle), allen key crank bolts & silver chainring bolts. £20 SOLD P/P
Black LX Headset, 1 1/8”, good condition. £10 SOLD
Black LX cantilever brakes, full set in good condition with Madison Aztec pads. £20
Dia Compe SS7 drilled brake levers, black. A couple of marks but good nick. £15 SOLD
Odyssey Svelte wheel skewers, black. £10
TecArt cable hangers, green, great condition. £5 SOLD

Thought I’d offer these as complete to start with just in case but I will split and do just the rims at £30 if needs be. Not much of a reduction I know but the spokes were cheap and the hubs were parts bin bits so the rims are the only thing with any real value.
