Team Marin 92
Non catalog spec but in era

 

[Cerberafund]

My 1989 Team Marin ‘19 inch’ I think? I’m 6f 1in and fits perfectly. One of my dream bikes as a kid, I managed to find one a few years ago. The grips are original, I’ve now replaced the saddle with a Turbo. Rides very well 35 years later. (Now searching for a 1988/89 Smoke Framed DB Axis XT in similar size to join it).

For me, thumb shifters are the best.. They take me back in time.

Just sold it on eBay to a lovely guy who had saved all his paper round money to buy one of these 30 years ago. He was so chuffed when he saw this one...exactly the same spec as his was!

I have a similar looking bottom bracket, by memory it is a Raceface, it has 12 indents. I could not identify a tool, so I worked out a 32mm nut was a bit bigger and I ground the edges down until it fitted and would move the bottom bracket without damaging the soft aluminium. Hopefully the bottom bracket was put in with the anti-seize compound. Very good luck with it.
