There hasn't been too many with this specific design the following production models had the shock monted near the fork( like the red model pictured in another post).B3":hxm24qmf said:
The silver one is really unique, if you look at the details (front mech mount guiding of the rear derailleur cable etc.) you can tell it was not yet ready for prime time. A real show bike prototype and i'd be very surprised to find one with 00002 written on it.
I'm glad you all can enjoy this!
There was an article many years ago on the designer in one of the mountain bike magazines and a review of the bike. I may have a copy somewhere but it will take a while to find! I remember going up to speak to Muddy Fox about some brake designs at about the time of the launch. In the corridor of their building were about 4 or 5 of the interactives. The prototype you show may well be one of the ones I saw at that time. They did a range of this design with about 4 or 5 models. The monocoque being the top of the range with lots of very nice parts! It's the one bike I would dearly love to add to my collection. 
If anyone has a frameset for sale I would be interested! :twisted:
At the time of muddy fox taking on the design they had just been bought/massive reinvestment. The previous bike show they had started to set-up their stand and then left it unfinished and unmanned as the company hit money problems.
Definitely a bike like no other!

Hey Santacrust - looks a pretty Rad ride you've got there. I have a collection of early Emmelle's and Apollo's and think this woul look great amongst them - would you consider a PX? I have a mint 1998 Emmelle Vector in Orange/Purple that I would be willing to put towards it (providing you were willing to collect from Scumthorpe)?
Let me know chick - Sanchez. Keep it real.

Hey thanks for the advice!,
Sorry RetardoSanchez but I'll have to turn down the offer of the Apollo, besides not sure your mom would let you sell it and I don't really want to travel all the way to Scumthorpe to see her again.. How old are you by the way?
Real glad I joined Retro Bike now.. it's a class act!
There's a whole 20 seconds of my life wasted!
Cheers honey.
