NOS Marin Ti? Sort of?

[Once A Hero]

Huge amount of money for a niche bit of kit, but I’m intrigued as to whether it’s actually any good, or indeed comparable to / the same as an early Marin Ti?

Sure that's ti? Colour looks a bit weird (and welds look ropey as...).

Early titanium welds are not as smooth as modern two pass welding. That’s very, very titanium. Lovely bike but over priced

150 were made by Litespeed...numbered accordingly.

Looks proper @Tootyred NOS like to me, very expensive but very purdy.

I have one of these...they came original with Marin saddle and tires. The German Marin distributor at the time built the bike for Audi and ordered it from Litespeed. It is built with the Marin Titanium frame from the same year...
