Beauty! A Manitou 3 or 4 on a Marin is so perfect, and with the XTR and White Industries parts that is a poster bike. Stunning, dude.

A thing of beauty.

Really lovely and a true inspiration for my new project.

Thank you for your comment, which serves as inspiration for someone who does the builds you do, it is a great satisfaction.
The truth is that I was a little tired of always seeing titanium bikes combined with black components. For this reason I decided to combine with silver colors.
I will soon improve the assembly with a new seat post (probably controltech) and with the original stem that this bike had in 1995.
I have mixed feelings about the tires... Maybe they will also be changed, but later.

If you need anything, don't hesitate to contact me.
It would be nice to get these titanium bikes (and others) together someday.
We'd just have to set a date and place...
Classic Galician mtb power!

Greetings.

What a machine!!
I used to work in a large bike shop, we had one of these come in as a p/ex against a newer bike. A female staff member snapped it up & put it to use as a tourer. It got ridden into the ground for years, never cleaned or cared for. Such a shame. This one on the other hand.......
