I just picked up this at a church sale in Barnes for £30.. 'Muddy Fox' branded racer
Hand painted, the MF branded foot straps seem to be colour coded to the frame, and the logos are stuck on.
It has suntour alpha 5000 deralleur and the handlebars are Atax with a peugeot plug in the end of one of them. Maillard front and Pelissier rear hub with a Mavic rim, 6 speed rear 2 front.
Campagnolo front mech and seatpost bolt, Simplex shifters (really nice actually), CLB brake set
I think the person who had it had the muddy fox foot straps and stickers lying round and decided to match his bike to them. People do some funny things.
If anyone has any info, knows what it is or can point me in the right direction, I would very much appreciate it.
A guy in a shop said it was probably late 80s high tensile steel. The welds are done very nicely, they look stuck together and there's virtually no welding marks. I thought it might be a peugeot so I quickly looked at some scans of 70s and 80s catalogues but couldn't find anything.
