Another early 1990s Marin - what year? Look - purple bits!

Hi, I just acquired an old 90s Marin Pine Mountain and can't recall the year it was made. Help!

Its in completely original condition, alu frame, all Deore XT parts, Mavic rims and lots of purply bits

Here are a few ropy phone pics, its plastered in dust as it has been hanging in a garage for about 10 years. That's a Specialized Carrier on the back - has to go.

Nice There are a lot of Marin catalogues in the Achieve area.
I think 93-94? By no means 100% though :roll:

Cheers, looks like a 93...positively modern for me, its the first non-steel bike I ever had.

all of the components will have date stamps on them, especially the seat, post, stem and you'll probably find its a 1993 model manufactured in late 1992.
