If you saw this ad previously, I just realised I had the size down wrong, its 19" not 18". Sorry.
I have a mid 90's marin team titanium (can't remember the exact year I bought it) which I sadly have to sell.
It has manitou forks, white industries cranks, XTR hubs, mavic 717 rims, XT front and rear mech. V brakes are XTR. Most are the original parts which still work pretty well. The wheels were replaced a few years back and they haven't seen a lot of use. Also one of the front shifters has been replaced by lx or something as it didn't work and had to use what the bike shop had lying around as needed to get it working quickly! I raced it regularly in the 90's but it has mostly languished in the shed since then. I did a couple of races on it a while back and it still seemed to function ok.
It does need a bit of a service, especially the forks which don't move much. I'm told the elastomers are easily obtainable. I'm no mechanic so if you want to ascertain what it needs or its condition you're welcome to come and have a look or ask questions! The frame is in pretty good condition, no dents, big scratches anything. It's never had any serious crashes. You can see faint marks where the crud catcher was attached but wouldn't call them scratches.
Hoping for a price of around £550. Will also consider splitting.
