Marin Nail Trail '95

[unidude]

Hi, recntly new to the site but been mtb'ing for quite a few years.

My first real mountain bike, a Marin Nail Trail bought in 1995.
Used until moth balled for newer, and allegedley better bikes.

Still got it, still ride it and still love it.

It now sports better kit than i could afford back in the day.
(i still have the Rock Star forks, Marin lite bars, stem, bar ends etc)
All stock '95 Marin but for;
- Rock Shox Judy SL
- Pace RC130 sub, Pace RC45
- Chris King Nothread set
- X-lite Chicken Stix, Onza Chill Pills, X-lite canti studs, Kool Stops
- Selle Italia Flite Ti
- Maxxis tyres
- Shimano spd's

and a Salsa Lip Lock (not retro but i deserve one item, surely)

I recently found the '95 brochure, handbook (with Marin sticker sheet) and my cool (hey, they were fashion once) Marin bum bag.

will post better / more pics next week.

please kind with your comments
