First up is a reluctant sale but run out of space. I bought the Indian Fire Trail frame a good while ago as a project and it was in a bit of a bad state but it’s be cleaned, sanded, polished and polished again! The IFT was the top end Marin Alu frame and is super light and stiff. (RRP ~ £1200 in 1994 with XT components)

The only downside was that the bottom bracket threads had been cross-threaded so I’ve replaced the BB with a Zenith threadless BB from the boys at VeloSolo. Took a punt with a threadless BB initially but this one feels super smooth and solid and I’m a heavy rider.

If my prices are way out let me know.

Collection fine also. I’m based in Birmingham but travel to Coventry, Oxford, Reading, Basingstoke for work and ride Cannock regularly so can meet easily

I'm interested in the Pine Mountain. Have you got some clearer pics? Is there any rust or dents and what condition is the nickel finish in?
 
More details on the pine mountain.

Perhaps a bit more 'loved' than originally thought. No dents but plenty of scratches and chips from miles of use. A true 'Project' frame. Just also noticed a very slight bend in the rear hanger, should be fine but thought i'd mention.

New pictures:












 
I really want a nickel-finish Pine Mountain, but having thought about it I really can't justify it at the moment so I'm going to have to resist all temptation and pass on it and probably regret it later.
