Hi all
Trawling Gumtree yesterday i bumped into an ad for " two mountain bikes"
the ad was a couple of days old but the picture stood out , looking closer i could see one was a bso but the other an old Fisher .
You could see a lot was not original but it was only up the road so went to have a look , which is fatal because i knew i would end up buying it :roll:
Anyway i ended up "saving" it for £15 .

The stem is pretty seized but the seatpost was free ,cranks and wheels are junk so we shall see .

Is that a Hoo-Koo-E-Koo?

Nice find!
Hi ,yes thats right , i think its an 88/89 model but not had a chance to do much other than skip the wheels and drown the stem in wd40 to see if i can move it .
Its such a part of the bikes " character " i dont want to damage it , or the forks . :D

I guess the headset is toast? Otherwise you could leave the stem in

Just spent a bit of lunch hour stripping it and managed to move the stem so with a bit of work i should be able to save it , BB came out which is amazing considering about half a litre of rusty water poured out of it :LOL:
