'92 Marin Palisides Trail MTB (Retro)

Featured Replies

I've had this bike since June and it was a bit grubby when I got it. I've cleaned it up and had many pleasurable hours riding it.

I've now found a '91 GT Avalanche which was my dream bike when I was 13 and am in the process of purchasing that so the Marin needs togo, SWMBO said I can't have 5 bikes as thats greedy :giggle:

The current pictures show the bike with Deore v-brakes, these will be removed and the orginal Shimano GS200 brakes fitted.

This is a fantastic bike for those wanting to re-live their youth (none of that Suspension/Alloy malarky here) or just fancy something different. I love watching peoples reactions when they see the bike as it truly is a headturner compared to todays colour schemes :). Everything works like NEW despite being 20years old.

There are NO dents in the frame/forks but there are scratches and some of the stickers are starting to come off where they've been rubbed/knocked over the years and is by no means perfect when close up.

I'll get some more close up pics of the components/wheels/frame etc on Sunday (weather permitting)

A few more pictures of it cleaned up

note.. it doesn't have bar-ends fitted anymore, these were taken before I removed them a couple of months ago..
