Fully M900 equipped as it was meant to be (and with its original seatpost,bottle and cage especially for GoldenEraMTB)

I think that Marin is just so cool.

Back when Marins were really desirable.

nice! That bike took me back....really like it, just wish it had a period correct syncros seatpost.

 

[Huntso]

I do have the original seatpost, but its a very tight fit even with a good greasing and would hate to get it stuck.
Its hard to get a decent post in 26.4mm, but just bought a nos USE silver post which will go a lot better than that black one.

Not sure what the rules are on changing the picture, bit annoyed though because I forgot to include the water bottle, its the original too

That's cool...would be interested in seeing it wit the use seatpost and water bottle.

 

[Huntso]

Well if its permissable I will take another pic with the original seatpost back in temporarily just for authenticity and include the water bottle.
(should be ok as two pictures are allowed per entry)

Did remember to put the original M737 SPD's on though, usually use flats.

This may not really be in keeping with the normal offerings but can I enter my new love - my Swiss Army Bike as seen in the other topic??

 

[Pickle]

Huntso's Marin reminds me of the old XC racing days from the 90's.

Really liked the old top end Marins

Cross

As this month's BoTM is screaming variety of the Heinz 57 order, I thought I'd change from the Kona and go with my freshly coloured-up Ibis Hakkalugi cross bike...

Repainted in a non-slavish homage to early Ibis team paint jobs with a few reproduction decals added for good measure - sadly, the images don't show the almost fluorescent nature of the lilac and blue, particularly at dusk...
