Marin Team Issue, '95 model ---- this is the victim of a botched aand discarded early single speed project --- I have had this bike since new-- so am responsible for all the frame's bumps and bruises --- it has many, but no dents ----

Tange Ultimate Prestige tubing helps keep the weight of this project at 17 lbs 13 oz as it sits, mostly just needing bars and cables to be rideable -- guessing I could squeak it in at 20 lbs ready to ride, but the wheelset is dreadful, as are the steel seat and basic micro-adjust post -- there are quite a few places to shed more weight

Quick and dirty singlespeed conversion at the rear end with a single cog and a bunch of spacers on a stock hub with a Surly chain slack device ----
Bike is wearing a cartridge bottom bracket and the original White Industries crankset, but it squeaked, -- there was an issue with the bottom bracket shell as I recall, and that's when I abandoned the project --- need to have the threads chased and the shell re-faced

Has the cool for the time Marin house brand canti's, which were good stoppers, but given the distressed condition of this bike's paint, I may have disc tabs welded on the back ---- I am going to use a carbon threadless rigid fork with disc tabs in place (my other option which would save some cash and also be trick - would be to run the Magura 33 hydraulic brakes to go on the stock canti posts )

Undecided on the drivetrain --- The White Eno hub would clean up the back end and look sweet, but I like gears, so a 1X11 SRAM setup would also be nice if I can divert funds towards this project from other things
