Ringle, XT and Manitou's, what's not to like.

I'm not yet convinced. Double top tube cable routing, geometry, other.

Seems, zolatone, similar rear dropout...

Marin council ensemble!!!!!!

Yeah, cable routing looks wrong compared to this:

Saying that, the groupset and drop outs seem correct and it's defo rusting like a zolatone! Rims different to the link but RM17's were used on plenty of period Marin's. Interesting.

Regarding routing, from catalogue on here....And it defo looks like zolatone. You can see the texture.

Oh yeah, they must have changed mid season. Agree it's a Team now.

 

[marc two tone]

Agreed, just a variant.
