Trying to date a Muddy Fox Sorcerer Pro

Jah Loppy · Jul 3, 2016

Evening, all

I'm hoping I might be able to get some help from board members who are a lot more knowledgeable than me when it comes to MTBs, as I'm attempting to date a Sorcerer Pro I picked up recently here in London. After some input from a friend of mine (based on those of the components which look as if they might be vaguely original), I'm guessing it's mid-Nineties. Does that sound roughly right from the photos?

I had a look at some of the other Sorcerer-related posts on here (including the ones with the catalogue scans), but they seem to focus mainly on bikes from around 1989/90.

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers, Jon.

Always arrive with a gift. Flowers are good. And don't appear too needy.

Somebody help him out.

Late 90s? Early 2000s from the decal set?

Originally cantis.

My first thought too

Mid nineties seems spot on, '94/5 at a guess - there may well be a catalogue in the archive, pretty sure that's where I got info on mine. Nice bikes, bit 'solid' but likeable I thought

Re:

Lol. Not sure I'm quite that excited by these bikes (well, not yet...)

I'll work on the assumption that it's 94/5 then, and have a proper trawl through the archives for some more info.

I was wondering if that might be the case, elPedro666 - not bad, but a bit chunky

Be nice to get it looking a bit more original though, and I'm a total newb when it comes to mountain biking anyway, so strictly on-road use at first.

Thanks again

STX RC was 95/96, so it's likely to be around there.

Re:

Thanks for that, My_Teenage_Self. I'll work on the assumption that it was STX throughout, and try and get the relevant remaining bits and pieces

Re:

Can't for the life of me remember whether or not I gave away a bagful of STX RC at Mayhem - if not I'll dig it out for you...

Whereabouts are you?

Re:

I shall keep my fingers and any other spare appendages firmly crossed, elPedro666

That would be awesome if you still happen to have the spare STX parts.

I'm in Kingston, south-west London (KT2 post code area).

Here's hoping...

Cheers, Jon.
