As above. It will be a prior year model rebadged as a limited edition. Usually lower end. Decent serviceable bike but of little value. Seem to pop up quite a lot.

Here's my time-warp 1988 Tufftrax - pimples on the tyres kind of thing.

For sale thread coming at some point.

Lovely bike looks almost new, i'll definitely be interested in buying it for my 88 Saracen collection i'm building up.

Not much - I know Saracen made a lot of non-regular model bikes.

There was one of these for sale in the North East recently.

Hi Heavy, just interested in how old it is and what frame was used...been having a lil look around and can see similarities with Tufftrax, eiger and Traverse.
heres some photos to show what i mean...(mines the last photo)

The yellow one is 88 - a few years older than yours, which is more like my 94? Tufftrax, and a Gmax special edition that I had.

just looking at the 1990 catalogue..its the pop out bit (under the seat, rear of the top tube) that stands out to me?

Afternoon all

New to Retrobike and after some more information about a Saracen bike I have owned since the 80s. It has been my bike, my Dad's bike and now mine again. It's a survivor rather than a show queen but I am finally getting around to a spruce up and would like to know more about it. Can anyone help?

Link here to my original post.

So, the thread is 'Early Saracen Lovers Anon'

And an early prototype is posted, hand built by a prominent frame builder and you all dribble over a custard yellow mass produced nylon monkey metal clad boat anchor??

You lot are fickle!!!
