Coolwall - Marin

First titanium marin, or first FRS with manitou are cool.
But, it's like a lot of brand. They were cool,… before the mid of 90ies
modern mtb is boring and toooooo serious.
So, we talk about retrobike, and the answer for me : retrobike marin were cool.

For me, the cool Marins were the rigid ones, suspension forks looked wrong on the skinny tubes, then they firmly closed the gates of cool with their double susp ones. Given this is supposedly retro, I´m saying Marin is cool, sorry but grey and pink Pine Mountain was in my eyes one of the nicest looking mtb´s made.

I can see your point but DNA were pretty dam good. I love the bikes from the states but I do get a bit fed up when readind a history of mountain biking. You would think the first people to ride off road were all over there. I'm 54 and was puting noblies on my bike since I was 12. A guy in our club, the maldon bicycle motor cross club, who's dad was good at making things turned up with a racer with cyclo cross tyres, flat bars and his dad had rigged the shifters to the bars. Clive Goodchild R.I.P. could wheely for ever and did drop offs as good as the ones in at Chicksands. OMG I am an old codger. How did this happen, help someone stop this stuff coming out of me.
