old Marin & Manitou stuff...

[misteracp]

....talking to a chum who just by per chance mentioned he has 2 barely touched/used Marin bikes from circa 1992 and he thinks 2 pairs of unused Manitou forks in his loft.....

I'm off to his on Wed to confirm and will post pics etc if I can...

Sounds interesting! I wish I had an ealry Marin kicking about, or a set of unused Manitous for that matter. Actually, I wish I had a loft too!

Unsure of year of these unfortunately - still cant find the Manitous at the mo.
The Palisades has only done about 250 yards :shock:

The top one is a 93, the bottom...I'm not sure, 98 or something...anyway not overly retro.

I think its a 1997 as I had one,Marin ovation alloy rings a bell.A nice riding frame and very solid,also light at about 3.85lbs.
