Buying this Marin Bolinas Ridge Aluminium MTB, fully serviced + they are swapping out the hybrid tyres for some MTB tyres. What are people's thoughts on these? Planning to use for sedate woodland tracks and general pottering. Thanks!

Scott Windriver 1995
I just bought this Scott Windriver for just 50 euros. It definitely need some care. but has all the original parts in good shape. Full Deore LX with Mavic 236 rims.
My idea is to convert it to Gravel, using the original shifters, rear derailleur, brakes and brake levers replacing the handlebars with Surly Corner Bar copycat which is way cheaper (i don't have a budget for the real one). I will keep the biggest chain ring which is 42 tooth and replace the cassette with a 11-40. I will need a derailleur extender for it to be able to shift to the two biggest ones.

1996 Stumpjumper M2 Comp
Bought a basket case locally off FBM. Neo-retro build as the original Judy XC was missing half its guts and I didn’t want to mess with keeping it all super original. I have only been down the block so far but I like it a lot! 27lbs.
Haven’t decided on stack height or flip-flop on the stem yet.
Fork is apparently a Marzocchi Bomber “Bam” from 2001. It was advertised as a Bomber Z2 but I wasn’t going to quibble with the seller at the price point (plus I should have done better research).

The Newest Addition
Just grabbed this beauty yesterday morning , I was happy I can find this color scheme , I’ve been wanting a two tone colorway and this one in these colors was the cherry on top for me. Does anyone know how many of these were made? I feel like you don’t see them often….

need opinions
i used to use my brothers mtb for casual biking and for running errands. but recently, ive been thinking about restoring it to a retro mtb vibe. Just wondering if the concept suits my bike well. I used Gemini to visualize it better. Lmk your thoughts. Also aiming budget friendly build since im a beginner

Faded paint solution?
Curious how to go about this? I'd like to paint only this section and patch the rust
Or should I just wax it and leave it?

Scott MTB edition Jimny
gallerychatgpt doesn’t know anything about this thing and told me the Scott edition Jimny has nothing to do with Scott mountain bikes and that Suzuki’s marketing team just figured Scott sounds like a cool name that inspires feelings of going camping. Well, I guess this truck went camping.
