If there were suggestions for additions to the Marin Museum, i genuinely feel if there were room for such additions, there are a lot of relevant models from British builders/companies.

Overburys Pioneer,
Roberts D.O.G.S B.O.L.O.X
Roberts White Spider.
Dave Yates C.A.T.W.H.I.S.k.A.S
Zinn Z-753
PACE RC-100
Orange Clockwork + Formula
Tushingham B-52
Formula One (any)
Muddy Fox Courier with disc
Raleigh Team bike
Bigfoot/Ozone e-stay
Sonic Sky-dance
Dave Yates Vulcan
Dave Lloyd D.O.N.K.I.S N.O.B
Swallow Griffon.
Roberts Stratos
Saracen Conquest
Orbit Ecstasy (Lee Cooper Hand-filed)
Hardisty (Columbus Genius)(Kevin Winters)

Im sure there are a lot more we can think of, but if there ever were to be a small corner of Marins Museum and the worlds mountain bike history, i think these should be contenders, each has a place and a relevance and with a display card telling each story of why, im sure it would make interesting reading.


I saw the mtb ... they are all beautiful. Congratulations

I wish they were all mine, sadly not.. :cry:

You can't have everything in life.
It is also nice to wish :wink:

You pretty much nailed it there. Maybe an Otis Guy too and one or two other v ltd production frame builder pioneers.

Oh yeah.. Otis Guy! Steve Potts and Lyndsay´s Mountain Goats.

IRD early parts need to be there. And their Stroker.

A Mike Augspurger titanium creation would be nice.

Amen. Sure there are people out there that have ALL these bikes. A serious collector in Switzerland has an incredible but very private
collection I hear.
 
I'd like to see early full suspension bikes.

Fisher RS1
Klein Mantra
GT RTS1
Proflex 856
Any early Jon Whyte design, Marin Rift Zone or just outside the 1997 cut off Whyte PRST
