Danke schön! Huntso... I would apreciate the oportunity of a copy of the English catalogue

there's my bike in all it's glory. One thing different.. the handlebar stem. I forgot that. I swopped it for a shorter, silver one (the only one Marin could supply at the time) and mine doesn't have/ never had (or did it???) the brake cable guide wheel mounted under the stem.

...now who has the correct purple stem for sale?
