i got told not to replace it with a 6 inch marin becuase it will be more limiting

You found an Ariel??? I thought they were as rare as hen's teeth. Didn't appear at any of the trade shows my lbs laid on trips to, and were impossible to order in? Still not sure its as good as a marin. Maybe the 6" was a limiting factor, rather than the fact its a Marin.

Its worth nothing. Hang it in the garage and in time the pain will stop.

Ask yourself when the last time you heard of someone lusting after a Saracen was. The frame is worth buttons, if you can even get someone to buy it. As for being 'better than a Marin', it cheered me up if nothing else.....

maybe i need sum1 who has ridden one before and really liked it to sell it too?
cos in my opinion the only downside to it is the rock shox shock....Posted 3 years ago # -
A friend of mine has one of these - reasonable frame, but very heavy it seems and rather plush, slightly short it also feels.
Agreed shock is poor.
As RR says, maybe £100.

New shock bushings should only be £15 so why get rid of it? Or you might get more if you fix this problem even before you sell it?

i want a tougher frame...i ride more all mountain..etc...this frame is a cross country frame
