Now surplus to requirements. Comes with an aluminium fork which my LBS fitted for me, but I'm also selling surly fork that fits it in another thread.
Has a new cane creek headset, new bottom bracket, new tyres, new...rear rotor, new grips. Wheels are second hand mavics of some description on deore hubs, brakes second hand shimano hydraulics (bought off here) Also have some spare tyres that came with the wheels which looked fine and were a bit bumpier if you wanted to do an offroad thing.
Could probably do with a larger front ring, and perhaps with a bit of a drivetrain overhaul (it works OK, just probably getting up in years)
In terms of sizing I'm 5'10 177 cm and it seems fine? The seatpost isn't set up for me in that pic which might be misleading. 59cm top tube, 52cm seat tube
I feel like if you were thinking of building up a nice 26 inch disc mtb and wanted to source the parts this would be good way to get most of them all at once. Or I guess as a place holder whilst you get your frame builder to weld a disc tab to the Marin you found in a skip.
OH plus the seatpost is a pump. But it only fits schraeder valves I think. But still! That's kind of cool.
Would have to be picked up from Cambridge/Cambridge train station, can't be bothered to pack it up, definitely can't be bothered to split it.
Great bike, great price! New owner is lucky with this deal.

Formatting Help
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
