My Marin XC-FRS

[tul214]

Had this sat in the garage since I built it in '96/97?

Basic spec is XC-FRS frame, Pace RC36 Evo forks, Mavic CrossLand wheels, mixture of XT and LX gears/brakes, White Industries chainset and at the moment some cheap slicks to help me put some miles on it but it is normally shod in a set of Panaracer FireXCPro's.

Hopefully there will be some pictures

Purely for cosmetic reasons I am on the lookout for a RED outer chainring. The existing PURPLE Middleburn ring is 46t 94pcd if anyone has something suitable lurking in their garages!

Love the look of these marins, although never ridden one. Put a post up in the wanted thread and i'm sure someone will find you a chainring

Lovely - love these old Marin frames (I have a '99 East Peak myself).

Nice. I have the exact same red Kore skewers on my bike too.

I was racing for Marin at this point 95/96/97.

Thats an xc front end and a B17 rear end (it was a bit longer to increase the wheel base etc)

Just thought you would like to know.

Cool pic. Thanks. Is that a hard shell/bmx-type helmet? Those are safer.
