Love the colour of the frame

Lovely looking bike

Interesting, the seatstays compared to the chainstays, look the wrong way round

Very nice though, guessing its not all stock?

Lol - the chainstay is just a refelction and yes, the QR for the seat is the wrong way around - blame the shop! Ive just not changed it yet

Thanks for the comment!

That's what the bobcat is looking like nowadays? looks really nice! I really like black bikes with a few flashes of lime green. Makes my "classic" '98 Bobcat look very very old.

lappymatt

Sure is!

This one is for sale.... PM any interest...............

HandjobDan

Why are you selling it so soon?, looks nice.

lappymatt

It handled it very nicely. Was only me and about 4 other people there!

Only selling due to wanting full suss

:?: :?: :?: You've got a brand new, lovely Marin and you are selling it after only 1 day of riding? Do you need a full suss or just after what someone else might have?

I saw this bike in my LBS yesterday and it looked like a real nice bike, easily worth keeping and upgrading as and when you want or need to

Anyway, you will not, I repeat not get a decent full suss for the same sort of money as you paid for this bike, plus you'll lose money on selling this as it'll then be 2nd hand.

I don't mean to sound funny or anything, just trying to save you alot of money and hassle

lappymatt

Hi mate its not brand new, had it a while...

I have spent a bit of cash already upgrading the parts so its not stock

Not desperate to sell, may even keep and get a full susser (want one because im getting more and more into just DH'ing)

cheers for the comments tho

Fair play
