1993 Marin Team Marin

[JonTom]

I bought this frame on Canadian Ebay recently, and it rocked up at work yesterday.

It's in really good shape - although the decals and clear coat are a little scruffy in places (new decals are already on the way from Gil). I'm currently undecided as to whether to leave it as is or get it stripped and refinished.

So ... just one or two XT components to find. Actually, it won't be too bad - I have a few Marin parts I can spray black, and I have the original tyres and saddle around here somewhere.

The BB is 68mm - does anyone know the correct spindle length for these frames?

WOW - that really is in really great shape!

Re:

Yes, v nice indeed

As for the BB, that's obviously determined by the crankset you'll use. Period correct would be an M-730 for this (I assume) in which case it'll take a 68x122.5 BB

Re:

It'll look even better with the Mavic decals removed and the clear coat polished.

Thanks for the info Dossa, planned chainset is an M730.
