Nice little beastie. When cash allows, start looking at your upgrades. Little things like pedals to start with. When you get some bigger bucks, I'd look at upgrading the fork. I've not done much to my ride, but upgrading the forks has changed my whole riding experience.

Tidy bike mate, bet it rides fine as it is but tyres would make a big difference, recommend maxxis high rollers, odi lock on grips make a difference too, wide handlebars are a favourite but not to everyones taste. Can confirm that red v8's are very bright

Nice looking bike mate. Definitely pedals first. I had those when I first got my bike and DMR V8s or NC-17 mag platforms will give you 100% better grip and confidence. Stick with black too.

SebMyllie said on 1 September 2010
I have a very similar spec bike to yours, and first thing I would be looking to upgrade are the forks, have a look around pinkbike.com and ebay for some 2nd hand, good condition forks Rock Shox Recon or even better some Revelations would be a good idea. It all depends on your budget really

nice ride mate, up for a bit of tweekin, mates got a kona blast that hes put foxes,hayes stroker trails, hope bits, raceface kit and will just swop the kit to his next frame, Dmr do Ox Blood red v8's which look top on his white Marin - just a thought. I'd look at getting sealed bearings where you can hubs,headset,bottom bracket etc a bit of bling as well you can move them to your next ride

nicee bike, might look good with a pair of red DMR's maybe?
dusty2009100 replied... on 23 July 2011
get some super star ignights best pedals i ever had
whoosh75 replied... on 6 September 2010
The red wont be exactly right and will stick out for the wrong reasons.
How about some white superstar pedals with red pins? I've just bought some black ones with red pins.
Perhaps take out some of the spacers out from the headset and cho the steerer to neaten up (if it feels comfortable, ignore me!)
My hollowtech chainset made a big difference..and saved loads of weight....then its fork and wheel upgrade time I spose!
Its a great bike as is...ride it, love it, wear it out and replace with better/stronger/lighter when you can :)
Callum f replied... on 3 September 2010
good idea
andrew_mck_2010 replied... on 31 August 2010
don't get red 1's callum it will look stupid cos they r lyk bright red get black 1's instead
Callum f replied... on 30 August 2010
yeah dont know if they still make v8's in red but i thought maybe black to match the cranks
