For Sale Marin Bear Valley

Dirt Disciple
I'm selling my Marin Bear Valley from 1992 (I think). Recently stripped and clear coated professionally. I left some of the tarnishing visible to show the patina of the older steel & welds (pic of black bike is how it looked before resto and I have many more during if required.) Rear brake fobs cut off during resto and 26" wheels replaced with 700c road wheels. 9 speed XT rear mech and new Tiagra brake levers. I can include some original parts, including the Marin Lite stem and 26" wheels (minimal extra cost) if required. I have a pdf of the original Marin catalogue for more info. Open to offers, I really don't know how much this is worth... Collection North Manchester only.

It was the look I was going for, just don't ride it enough now I'm working from home. Had to customise the brake fittings to make 700c work...
 
I love the look of this, some good work has gone into it, well done & that's a reasonable price too... GLWS
 
Thanks Graham, there are some nice details on that frame too that you don't normally see until you strip it down
