1991 Marin Sausalito (Hybrid/City bike)

[randomdan]

I'm well pleased with how this turned out, it's certainly retro-mod rather than a retro restoration. I'm get a kind of perverse pleasure from the '80s 4 finger brake levers and modern tektro cyclocross style brake combination Mixing the eras has never made so much sense!

Re:

Looks great. I used the same cantis on my Miyata - a friend gave them to me and they seemed a good idea.
