Although stripping it down and rebuilding on another frame would be a good learning experience.
Steerer length right now is longer than I need. I'd have to cut it down if I kept the Marin frame, so I've got some room to work with there. Seatpost wouldn't be a problem, as the frames I do have my eye on are the same diameter. Plus the post I've got is a brand new Thomson which I know I could sell for about what I paid for it. I'm considering upgrading the BB and crankset, too. And, yes, rebuilding on another frame would be an added bonus since I enjoy doing most of my own wrench work.
