Marin Eldridge Grade circa 1989?

[Bigfish69]

Hello all,

Joined the forum as I have a Marin Eldridge Grade.

Recently took it for a full service, new tubes, gear selector flushed and refilled.

It really is in mint condition, totally standard apart from a new rear wheel.

I can't be sure on the year for the bike. Took some pictures on a ride today (first ride in 10yrs of dry storage) but the photo's taken on my phone are are too large to post here..... Any tips?

Unfortunatuely they only go back to 91

You need to reduce the size of your pictures to put them on here. Plenty of free programs online.

Not sure about how far back the Eldridge went back. I had it in my head that it was a new model in 1990 but that may not be correct?

Looking forward to seeing it.

Will have a look on line and resize, bear with me.

Interested to know the year and estimated value

Re:

That's much newer, more like a 97/8. My Nephew has a Palisades of the same vintage.

Value wise, I'm no expert on post 95 but I guess £150/200 if in the condition you suggest?
