Im not too bothered about cosmetics, but as long as everything is straight and threads (bb and mech) are good, im interested!
Would prefer not to have a complete dog thats rusted and beaten up though
Im looking for a cheap retro renovation project to replace the 20" GT Avalanche frame that i have on my XC ride. The GT is up for sale by the way- pics on request.
It's too big for me and i prefer steel not alloy.
PS: If you live in the SE London/NW Kent area, even better as we can cut out postage and i can collect 😀
Not sure it this floats your boat, but I have a 93 or 94 Marin Team issue.
Presently it is sporting some pace copy carbon fibre stantioned suspension forks.
Frame is straight, except a bit of a ding on the chainstay (big rock)
Might benefit from a respray but I beleive threads etc are all good.
Let me know if it floats your boat and rough offer price if it does...........can do photos etc
Hope this helps

Try ebay they had some the other day.

I was watching that 😀
Isn't it a 19"? Bit too big for me if it is...
Still would be interested if it measures up as a 17".

Floats my boat- how much. Hopefully it'll match my budget. Please email me some pics 😀

Like the sound of this- email sent! 😀
Bump 😀
I've got a 15.5" 2000 Fire Mountain (last of the steel frames) - any use ?
15.5" 2000 Fire Mountain
Got any pics, and some measurements (ie top tube length etc)?
Also how much do you want for it posted 😀
Will grab some later on today when I get a chance; but it's this one [url= http://www.mtbr.com/cat/bikes/bike-hardtail/kona/2000-fire-mountain/prd_354072_96crx.aspx ]2000 fire mountain[/url]
Virtually stock (only change is the front forks were swapped from RST's to RS Indys and it's ended up with a Marin seatpost)
Never posted a bike before; any idea what postage costs would be like ?
Im only after the frame, not a whole bike- i've got lots of lovely things to bolt on it 😉
Postage i think is about £10 for frame on its own nearer £15-£20 for a whole bike. And dont take it to the post office as they'll pull funny faces at you, phone a courier like UPS or Fed Ex and they'll come collect it from you 😀
My search continues................... anyone got one ❓
hello have a good condition Marin Eldridge.
pink/grey 1990.
Frame size may be too big.
Am in NW kent area.
