I-LikeMatchesDerFun Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Don't know Marin DH bikes but if the rear spacing between the chainstays is 135mm, then I don't see why it wouldn't fit. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevewhich model?as I like matches says....as long as its 135mm, 10mm axle it should be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 As the Pro 2 comes in pretty much every rear mtb hub width and axle configuration im going to say yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_malcolm Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Never seen a Marin DH bike. Seen there aggressive XC bikes. A pro II will fit as its standard mtb spacing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew62 Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Dont use the trials version though as the extra engagements are a waste and you won't be able to run a full cassette! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Marin have had a DH bike/frame up until about 6-7 years ago, they've had shaums march on a more extreme version of the quad xlt which uses a 150x12mm rear end, the original white and orange one was a standard mtb rear end and the black and red one was a 150x12mm rear end.

craigjames Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Surprised to see one of those still kicking around! Dave Hemming and James Allaway used to ride on them for marin uk. what are the forks? as you may have gathered a standard qr 135mm spacing pro 2 will fit.

craigjames Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 i dont think that particular model has been made since 1998, so im guessing a few hundred tops quid if its all working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
