Try to find what's the frame

Hi! May be somebody know, what is this frame?
It was painting without me & saler say that it's old Marin frame

Not Marin. Looks to be a fairly low end frame judging by the rack mounts, kick stand mount and dynamo bracket. Not worth a lot, would build into a heavy but solid bike

^^ Aye.

Post up the frame number if you can find it.

it's worth recycling -
There's loads of nice stuff around available cheap.

Repainting a frame with components like the headset cups still in there isn't ever a good sign.

A quick weight will also reveal if it's worth saving. My guess is that's over 3.5kg...and therefore gas pipe. Such bikes can ride nicely though and make excellent transport.

A basic frame works ok - but if you festoon it with matching cheap components, it will break - so the value of a build kit worth using way exceeds the cost of a nice old frame
