I need to replace the shock bushing on my 97/98 Marin mount vision - does anyone know which one I need to buy, and from where?

These replaced mine in November www.woodrupcycles.com

How much did it cost? Did they have to make up a part from scratch?

Re:

No they ordered the parts in and fitted them total price £41.98

 

[ultrazenith]

Do you know if they are Marin-specific parts, or standard, widely available parts?

 

[boswell]

dunno presumed they were Marin parts

2005 Wolf Ridge FRS TARA
Had since new, not done many miles (still <50!) almost totally original even the tyres but I added an Easton CT2 Carbon MonkeyLite riserbar the week I bought it, and recently swapped the WTB MP310 clipless pedals (which I can't even give away cos nobody wants them!) to NOS Shimano SPD-M535 so I can ride this and my A-M XT on the same SPD shoes/cleats.
Pictured here last month outside the house in the sun and on a local route after flipping the stem to a negative rise giving a much better riding position

Nice ride! How come you've kept the miles less than 50???

A combination of working away, spending weekends when home doing other things, general laziness and in more recent years ill health forcing sever lack of motivation :|

Only recently got back into riding anything and despite its low mileage it's been serviced a few times over the years and all works perfectly.

That's OK just making sure you aren't one of those greedy retro mtb speculators!
