FS: 2007 Marin road bike (almost complete) - never ridden
Alas, this was bought at an REI garage sale as a project but I've finally accepted that the bike is just too small for me. It's missing the headset and stem. Instead of completing it only to sell it or try to ride it uncomfortably, I figure there must be some riders shorter than me (5'10'') that would be interested. Rather than prattle on I've put the measurements and CG listing below. Just want it to go to a good home. 300 bucks. Tnx!
Seat Tube (top tube center to center): 56 cm
Seat Tube (actual center to top): 54.5 cm
Top Tube (effective): 543 mm
Top Tube (actual): 529
Standover: 783 mm
Head Tube Angle: 72
Seat Tube Angle: 74
Head Tube Length: 170 mm
Chain Stay: 415 mm
Bottom Bracket Height: 270 mm
Fork Offset: 50 mm
Seat Post: 27.2 mm

I was surprised too. But with my body even with a longer stem it would be a bit uncomfortable. Marin says it's designed for a more upright position. Who knows. The benefit I guess is that whoever gets it can select their stem length? I'm bummed to get rid of it but it was a bit of an impulse buy.
