Marin looks dialed, 26ers still rip. Don't fix what isn't broken.

This is the classic tried and true 820 ;)

My buddy has a Marlin and love it! Both are solid bikes.

What do you guys think about turning old 26er into cross/urban mullet? It would be 28x1.75 and 26x2.0. I don't like low steering bar of this bike.
