Just acquired this early Marin frameset, I know my Marins pretty well but this one's got me stumped!
I've gone through the Archive but cannot see this one, I do know it's got to be early im guessing 89-92 as I know the 93's onwards,
Also weirdly the rear dropouts don't take a 135mm hub it's nearer 122mm - unless it's had a singlespeed wheel in there or something prior but doesn't look like it. Did wonder if it's a hybrid model but that would still be a 135 dropout, and I've put a 26" wheel in the fork and that lines up with the brake fine.
Any help appreciated! Oh and it's heavy - really heavy to say it's a Tange, way heavier than my '95 Marins. My first thought was a Bolinas maybe??
