hi,thanks for letting me join,last week i picked this bike up,this love guy was selling her for £150 but would take £125 (so me not being a complete retard and jumped right in),I had one of these bikes (this exact model back in 1999,when i was 19 yrs old,my father came home from sea but missed my 18th birthday in 199
,he asked my mum what i wanted as i was not in and my mother said get him that bike he wants,i only had this bike for 6 months until it got stolen,all frame numbers are intact and 90+% period correct on the bike,i just need a owners catalogue to find what parts she had on her or i might contact marin and get help from them,i think the rear shock was a suntour but i cant remember.thanks jim
