This hasn't been seen for a while on here. My early, 1997 Marin Mount Vision. The original swing arm cracked and was replaced with a modern one a couple of years ago. The new swing arm has disk brake tabs, I was looking to sell on my Kona so transfered the Hope brakes and Mavic wheels to this.
I have fitted Hope Mono M4 disc brakes, Mavic Crossride wheels, X-lite XC bars, X-lite Clickon seatpost, X-lite stubby bar ends and Kore stem. Overall it handles very well and is certainly a rider. Not the most original of builds and not the cleanest but I like it how it is.
