Team Marin 1991 frame/fork/stem/bar/s’post 17.5”

The clearout contibues...
Team Marin 1991 ‘fuselage’! These are Prestige frames.
Comes with the parts you see, including the all important 30.3mm seatpost (a Marin-branded Strong of Japan). Seatpost has a bit of a deep scratch down the back, I guess has slipped due to a poorly tightened seat clamp. Xt headset and seat QR included. Headset needs a re-grease and adjustment.
17.5” c-c seat tube (nearly 19” centre to top) and a 22.5” c-c top tube. I think this makes it a 17.5” in Marin size?
Sun fading on the pink bits, and quite a bit of that surface rust speckles on the Zolatone finish which doesn’t seem to clean off like it would on a normal paint.
All the threads are fine.
Not sure I’m price here... really great frameset and parts, slightly tired paint but fundamentally sound.
Going to start this at £130 collected (Bournemouth) or £150 posted. Let me know if I’m way out.

Lovely bike, wish I’d never sold mine

I’d buy this if I didn’t have another Marin to restore and the time.

I thought you might be all over this Tim .

Re:

Had a bit of interest in this but I think I’ve priced a bit high given the condition (meaning the paintwork, based on Zolatone being a bugger to clean up!).
So... drop £20 off both... £110 collected and £130 posted.
That’s got to be decent for a top-line Prestige frame with the parts that are included, right?

Yes, but this is a Team, worth making an exception for. I’m changing trains at Clapham around 9.30/10am tomorrow and could hand it over in person! Assuming Wandsworth isn’t just a random username!!

Cool frameset!
I'd be tempted but heap of trouble if this arrived at home, and it's perhaps a little small for me in this size. Plus my own stuff isn't selling!
Still it's got a bit of character, give us a shout if it doesn't sell.

Was in Wandsworth, now Kent. And my wife would still kill me!
