marin eldridge grade singlespeed mountain bike retro fixie

Description:

This is my old marin bike which is a very good brand. It has a lightweight steel frame. This bike is a project bike of mine which I have only just built to use on the road as a fixie with a proper single speed conversion. Its in the way really and as much as I want to keep it i built it out of enjoyment. Realisticly it does need another home. As you can see it has a very retro purple colour scheme going on. I chose purple as this is a retro colour which would suit its era. I have replaced the suspension with some silver rigid forks and removed the gears as I want to save weight and gain maximum speed and pedalling efficiency from the bike. It does ride but needs a couple of minor tweeks to get it running a1 i was going to change the brakes and cables (to purple!) and just have one brake on the front. I was also going to get a bike shop to give it a once over and maybe true the wheels up a touch and make sure i have done this properly. I have built plenty of mountain bikes but this is the first fixie i have done and wanted piece of mind that the chain alignment and tension is correct. This has loads of new parts i have spent a few quid on this bike!
New parts: Handlebars, grips, seat, seat post, tires, pedals, crank, chain, single speed convertor kit, quick release skewers.
I have spent lots of money on this and its loaded with brand new parts!
This would suit an enthusiast or someone who appreciates the retro era.
I have now bought even more parts for it, some genuine tektro purple brakes and a suede seat and another purple bottle cage, im still buying for it!
