Finally, after months of polishing and replacing parts (with much assistance from retrobike), my '90 Pine Mountain finally emerged from the shed this weekend, finished and ready to roll (or be hung on the wall!) Full restoration thread with scores of pics here -...

For those that were keen on seeing how the light grey Zolatone recreation went... the results can be seen at http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=223311&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=45 Cheers.

Been waiting ages for this to come back to me!!! http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1756304#1756304 Now I can get on with the restoration. :D

Hi, Does anyone know if the oversize headset on my 1990 zolatone Pine Mountain is removed by unthreading or by knocking it out with a drift? It's in there good and proper and isn't going anywhere without some force, so want to make sure I'm going about it in the right way. Cheers!

Can anyone tell me if these are still made, or otherwise a good suitable Shimano alternative, please? Cheers.

This is the retro Shimano QR skewer... It looks like it should be a split ring/washer on the end of the pivot pin where it comes through the opposite side of the cap.... but it isn't; the ring/washer is complete and there's no obvious way to remove it and release the lever from the end cap...

What are the chances someone has these parts for sale? :lol:

Hi all, Last month I took the plunge and spent a whole load of money on a new carbon frame Cube Reaction GTC Race in a bid to rejuvinate my cycling and get me back out on the trails, which I had forsaken quite some time ago. While I was waiting for the new bike to arrive I dusted down my...

The reason I ask is I always thought it had a Deore DX groupset throughout, but now I'm stripping down and restoring my 1990 Pine Mountain, I notice the front mech is an Exage 400 LX... I don't think I ever changed it, but I could be wrong! ???

Hi folks, I'm in the process of restoring my 1990 Marin Pine Mountain and will be looking to source NOS or excellent condition used chainset parts... The trouble is, apart from knowing it's a 46/36/24t front, and 7speed rear I don't know the actual Shimano part codes. Pretty sure they...

Nothing to do with me, and I was going to bid on it, but it looks like it has a couple of scratches, so I'll go back to respraying my own. But in case anyone here is looking, bidding ends tonight...

Hey guys, Before I start to strip down my '90 Pine Mountain frame for a full restoration, I need to make sure that I'm going to be able to replace the "MARIN" and "Pine Mountain" stickers. Of course I can either create the artwork and get my own stickers printed, or I can try to source...

Hi folks, OK, I'm trying to tidy up my 1990 Pine Mountain, which is likely to entail a stripdown and respray (no idea yet how I'm going to tackle the zolatone, but plenty of ideas here on RetroBike)... but the most pressing thing however is I need to replace the entire groupset. The...

Hey folks, I found an awsome thread on here from a guy that restored his 90/91 Pine Mountain, and it got me thinking about doing the same to mine. Mine is the 1990, and it's still serving me well, but over the years the handlebar grips have split and been replaced by tape. So I'm wondering...
