Thanks to Mike (themarinman) for letting me buy this frame. It's turned out to be a real beauty!
It's always great to see an early 90s Marin resto and rebuild...especially as there aren't many on UA-cam. This is quite a nice example. I'm a collector of early 90s Marins and recently became the second custodian of a Pine Mountain of the same vintage as this. The original only Keith did an amazing job of restoring and rebuilding his pride and joy. Everything about Keith's work oozes quality build and finish, especially the paint...especially the neon orange front end! I love these early 90s Marins...which is why I have so many! Great video! Thanks Mark (and Mike for supplying the frame which started off this project).
Can you give me some advice on buying a marin eldridge grade.
It is a meon yelow bike with red paint stripes on it
The condition is really good but the sellers is asking 350 euro.
Is this a fair price or way over the top?
Cheers
Bb
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼, this was a joyous moment for me
Love Marins. This is great!
Thank you!
My maths teacher at school had this model, I lusted after it as a 13 year old, plus orange is my favourite colour so this was the one to have. I'm currently helping my friend restore a 90 palisades
Nice. Good luck with your build
That bike is class I'm a Marin fan as I had one in the 90's. Looks very nice
Rides real nice too!
Splendid job. The 90s Marins, in my view, were the most stylish mtbs available. They stood out from all the other brands so well, and still do nowadays. I hope you are able to keep the bike and enjoy your efforts.
All the best
Hopefully! It's the only Marin in my collection at the moment.
@@MonkeyShred Nice Job. The painting is interesting.
sorry to be off topic but does anyone know a tool to log back into an instagram account??
I was stupid forgot the password. I would appreciate any help you can give me!
@Joseph Amir instablaster ;)
@Alan Jesse i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
You can’t beat 90’s marins, I’ve got a bobcat trail, a palisades and a Indian fire trail. 👌
such a beautiful bike and restoration. with the nice ambient sounds it almost made me cry
Wow thanks!
Looks awesome! Great job..Old bikes rock
Still not got over missing out on a Marin Team Titanium for £20, it's been a month now but still gets to me.
A friend of mine had one back in the day, it was nice, I'm still looking for a park pre titanium but they are really rare, great bike, one of the best
My god, really? I've never met you but this kills me too! Where on earth did you see it? Surely the seller didn't know what it was?
It was in a joblot of four bikes a scrap man had picked up, the picture on Facebook marketplace was really bad and I wasted at least 2 days before I realised what it was. Messaged him straight away when I did realise but I missed it by a day. The guy who got it stripped it and it was on eBay the next day, went straight up to £100 then was taken off so I suspect he as offered a lot of money for it. Still have all the pictures but not sure how to post them on here.
Oh no way! I've had a few bikes that have slipped by like that. I think I found a pretty nice GT LTS (although I never confirmed the idenity) and won it for £40 maybe. Asked the seller when I could pick it up and he can me some spiel about selling it to his neighbour the day before. OH. And missed a carbon STS for £100. A frame would cost me 4x that :(
rickychopper I joined Facebook last month for this very reason but because I’m not an “established” user they won’t let me have access to Marketplace! Infuriating, I can only imagine all the titanium the other side of the wall beyond my reach.
Nail Clippers - best thing ever invented for cutting zip ties and leaving nothing sharp to cut yourself on and I'm loving that Cerakote finish - only IMHO thats got to be one of the most perfect frame resprays I have ever seen on a restore. Perfecto. Nice job - well done.
Really impressed with it too. I have another Cerakote build coming up soon too... and that was has a fade.
Very nicely done! Love how this one turned out. Cable routing along the top tube always makes the most sense to me.
Thanks!
That bb removing system is ingenious!
Looks incredible. Great video and great result. Also, the rush of wind to Torveys backside looked very refreshing!
Haha yeh, I'm not sure how she felt about that.
Great Video MonkeyShred! I bought my Pine Mountain in the aftermarket for £525 in 1992 and it's still ridable and only had tyres and brakes - a bit like my first Audi A4 1.9 TDI Avant, which went round the world 13 times (mileage equivalent) and outside of routine servicing, only cost me a rear wiper assembly and a pair of rear shocks. Going for a spin on my Marin this afternoon in the Yorkshire forests. Only things I would like to do with it are, stop the rear brake squealing and find a set of original white-walled tyres for it.
stunning. well done. also a Marin fan
Awesome! Thank you!
nice...i had a trek 950 from that time... loved it, and was a great time to get into mountain biking..!
The early days and lots of innovation
Outstanding rebuild. Looks amazing.
Thank you very much!
My new favorite type of build videos, while raining. Greeting from Mexico.
It was kind of relazing listening to the rain.
Loving the vintage MTB builds! Can't get enough!!!
Me too!
Turned out very nice
Thank you.
you do very nice work my friend !!
Thanks!
I have a Pine Mountain from 1994....good old Stuff.
So wonderful
Thanks!
Remember these when I was at school in the fluorescent orange, yellow and green
That for me is everything I love in a bike. Quality rebuild mate.👍
Thanks 👍
This will change your life.
Another excellent build 👌 absolutely love it 👍
Thanks 👍
Lovely bike
Thanks ✌️
Looks great! The paint turned out awesome. Even the Deore shark fin was a nice touch. I have a 92 that I just finished, hopefully I will be able to finish editing the video soon 😂😂😂. Can’t wait for the ride video!
Look forward to your build. Fingers crossed for the rain to hold off so I can ride it properly!
Dream bike, turned out super lovely, and not gonna lie I'm envy haha
It's a really nice ride too!
Nice setup looks good to me well done m8
Thanks 👍
The paint came out really nice i mean really NICE good work as always hope you👨 and the cat🐱 are OK your cat she's is so lovely
Thank you. She's the bestest garage buddy.
bikes and flame-throwers...that's the life
If in doubt, burn it out.
I like your videos. Great stuff. I had a Palisades back in the day. Not always sure that you know what you are doing, but instructive all the same
What makes you think I don't know what I'm doing? 😂
@@MonkeyShred I think the blow torch bit reminded me of the difficulty of finding an half decent crème brulee.
I very nearly bought one of these the other week, wish i had now, gumtree and shpock are great places to find bargain older bikes, the team marin was the next one up at this time, i think it was the team titanium that was the first bike with xtr a couple of years later
That's the one! I think I looked at a later catalogue for a friend before who has a Indian Fire Trail hidden away and I'm sure they had 3 "Team" variants later on.
Superb!
I would love to see you restore a 1990/91 Dawes 'Fat chance ' in orange like i had. Wonderful bike.
Cerakote and Retro Decals are next level! Such a cool design, always loved those Marin saddles too. Would recommend Autosol and a Dremel to bring those chainset bolts back to a shine. Shark fin too, must have cost a fortune. Always on lookout for those...
Well, after I dug all the parts out to clean them....a day before I planned to film, I noticed those bolts and thought about changing them. They'll only rust again if I polish them :( Shark fin I had lying around actually!
MonkeyShred I spoke too soon on those Shark fins, just got a job lot NOS from Poland! Damn shame I was too impatient to get my Dyna Tech build film uploaded before they arrive.
I always thought Marin bikes were comfortable. To me they are the Orange Bikes of America. Nice build.
My first bike was a 1992 Palisades Trail with the fluro green and matte black frame. They all looked so great at the time. Followed it up by upgrading to a 1993 Eldridge Grade colour scheme wasn't as nice though. 😎
Very nice
Thanks
Very smart! How about a video on applying decals?
Ermmmm, warm them up, slap them on and hope for the best. I took measurements before but didn't use any guide tape or anything when reapplying. Seem to be pretty straight though!
Very very nice work. Reminds me of my teens. The only minor comment I would make is the main Marin decals on the frame could have been less small and rounded and more like the original, but I'm nitpicking.
The decals should be exactly the same as original. They were actually copied from them :)
It's just smaller and less bold. But still great bike mate.
Really nice job, the new finish is superb. I did a Marin restore myself recently, inspired by your work on old retro mtbs. Really interested in those tires ;)
I'll give a proper review of them shortly. Just trying to gather footage and test them in different terrains. Had them pumped right up on the roads today though. Didn't feel much drag at all.
That's a specific Kona headset called the Control Centre. Should have a Deore DX headset on it. The Kona ones make good money! 😉 Great headsets! Fantastic build and attention to detail, however the bars, stem and forks were gloss. Other than that super build and Gil is the best for decals. Not trying to be negative, just constructive as early bikes are still fresh in my head.
Ohhhh is that where it's from! I've never seen that style of headset before. It was quite nice to work with! Yeh I would have loved the fluro parts to be gloss but alas the Cerakote isn't available in that yet (or at least at the place I use)
wicked
😋 tasty 😋 but my god your generous with the threadlock 😉
It was only a little squirt! :)
Oh my word 😍
Inspected & approved by Torvy!
Been waiting for this build. Well done!
fluffy cat!
Any idea what the max tyre clearance are on these 90s Marins? I'm thinking of getting a 94 Muirwoods and want to put some Maxxis Hookworms on there, reckon they'd fit? Can't find an answer for love nor money online. Lovely restoration btw, that ceracoat turned out lovely =]
Sorry, I don't. It's a bit trial and error.
The seatpost is a 29.6mm, hard to find those days, found one here: www.internet-bikes.com/en/48398-ergotec-seatpost-patent-296-x-350-mm-aluminum-black/
Yessssssss
stainless screws in contact with steel parts like the stem. a no-go. Don´t mess up your nice work with galvanic corrosion.
The one time I listen to comments saying use stainless bolts and I get told not to use stainless bolts hahaha. Go figure! They should be ok! They're all lubed up.
Nice build! Where do you get the decals from for restoration jobs? Any help on this would be great thanks.
sorry just seen the mention at the end of the video
I need to get another Marin!
I want to see you do some vintage BMX bikes too
I'm too old and broken to ride BMXs and I like to ride them after I build them :(
I am too. I just enjoy restoring them.
looks good brotha, my kinda rebuild. whats up from the SF bay area
Thanks Antonio!
Hi
What is the name of the colour you done on the frame?
Proper beautfil
Thank you.
Hi, just got the same frame that I want to repaint. Could you measure the seatpost diameter, it looks like a weird dimension. I suspect it is a 29.4mm or a 29.6mm. Where you got the decals? Have you painted it yourself?
Who did the Cerkote job?
as someone who's had tons of problems with rusty bb's from riding in the rain, seeing you slap that bb on in the rain and contaminating your grease with water, that was absolutely cringe inducing. but other than that, that's a beautiful bike to restore.
How much was the cerakote
Great job colors so nice. I was given a trek y-11 Carbon frame what you think is it worth restoring Keep up the good work 😎
I couldn't say if I'm honest! It's not something I've come across before.
I bought an old marin in great condition at pawn shop. It was repainted so I dont know what model it is to order a rear wheel and cassette. Model number is 24420 on bottom. Does anyone know what year it is and model name
I find one of the best ways to try and research bikes is if it has Shimano parts, look at the two letter date stamp on the back of a component, and then look up the brochure or catalogue for that year and the years around it to see if anything matches
I remember when they 1st come out + my m8 had one with bullseye cranks with all the best parts, best bike I'd ever seen in the flesh at the time. He never would let me have a ride on it though. Please let me know how it rides once you've restored it. I'd love to know. Ps, as usual lovin ya werk.
Will do! Gathering footage at the moment for a ride / tyre test
Own a 1990 Team Marin bike 17 inch with XT drivetrain
Awesome. Perfect size and great gear.
It doesn't really matter, but I belive the RD is an older ''plain'' Deore and not Deore DX.
You're right. I've since changed it to a "proper" DX variant
In April 2020 I bought a really nice. almost totally stock silver/gray with pink accents 1993 Marin Pine R.S FSR from the UK to the USA $875.00 USD with shipping and tax.
These are cool bikes but that is a huge rip off
@@tomvaughan2198 If you saw the bike I bought you would understand the price. My 1993 Pine R.S is full suspension with Manitou front and rear shocks. The rear Manitou Shocks are built into the frame and are not like a coil spring or poly-bushings on the Proflex. In 1993 the only full suspension mountain bike better than my 1993 Marin Pine R.S was the Mountain Cycle San Andreas which right now will cost you about $2,000.00 if you can find a nice one. In the late 1990s to mid-2000s most full suspension mountain bikes only came with one adjustable rear coil spring shock. My 1993 Marin Pine R.S. Full suspension mountain bike has dual rear Manitou coil shocks, which was one of the best rear suspensions in the 1990s to mid-2000s. Marin was well ahead of everybody with these bike.
Oo ouch. Bet the shipping was a fair whack of that cost. I saw one pop up recently and I have a nice Manitou fork to go on to match the rear but alas... I can't spend at the moment :(
@@MonkeyShred The shipping was $150.00 from UK to the USA. The bike was $700.00 and Tax was $25.00.
@@JohnSmith-ud4qc Tax was only 25? Wow! I'm sure if I bought a bike from the US, I'd have to pay 20% on top in taxes, and then give the courier a handling fee too.
What is that part above the top headset cup, some kind of metal spacer?
PS I think you are puting way too much loctite on bb bolts
its the lock ring for the headset. see here.. www.bikepro.com/arch_products/headsets/ajoemurray_hset.html
It was only a drop of loctite. Don't worry ;)
Have you been out on those tyres? I've been curious about them. Are they good?
I have today. They were pumped up to near max (50ish PSI) for a road commute and I was suprised how fast they rolled tbh! Pretty comfy too even with that high pressure.
the saddle seems to be damage?
It is slightly on the nose yes. Until I find a perfect one, this will work though. It's actually really comfy!
Dou you paint the bikes yourself or how much do you pay for these paint jobs? In Germany they charge you 200-300 € for one bike frame...
I don't powder coat or cerakote myself, but I have sprayed (with cans) bikes myself. That cerakote job cost me £53
Thank you very much for the insight! 🙏
@@MonkeyShred not a bad price! I have a 91 Eldridge that's looking sorry for itself. Did the price cover shot blasting too or was that separate?
what grease do you use ?
Weldtite
@@MonkeyShred thanks ✌️
3:40
Plastic cups suck but fire is always a solution :)
Westoration
I don't get it?
wer ur cat tommy?
нафига надо было оставлять задрипанное седло?
17:30 Torvy?
Of course :)
I don't like it when they keep talking in the video
You can always hit the mute button ;)
this time it is already better but the bike was not already in very bad conditions
The paint was pretty rough and rusty with decals missing and it had no components to start. ;)
So i had the Palisades of the same year. That grey paint came out of the shop with a rough finish - it was said to be tougher than regular paint.
