Picked this one up a few weeks ago. I was planning to use the parts because I didn't think the frame was any good. But then I saw it! It was pretty good! Took it home, stripped it, cleaned it and put some new components on it I had in the shed!
A new black seatpost is on the way, so it's not finished yet, but I thought you guys would like to see it!

The color in the first pic is OK and reflects the real color. The other pics are a bit faded... Think it's too green for this time of year!

Got some yellow tires......... And I love it!!

Nice colour! What thumbies ares those?

Suntour XCD6000 with Accushift!

Nice . . . . . Very Nice . . . . . . very very nice indeed

my fav muddy fox model and colour of all time, I am still on the hunt for one of these in a smaller size, for some reason the ones that appear on Ebay seem to have been left outside for a lifetime or are mahhoooosive

Do you have the original rudder like stem ?

No, it came with a very short yellow Girvin flexstem without elastomer.....

Suspension!

That bike is very cool

yes a classic frame and colour you must be 7 ft tall to ride that bike?

That's a real classic. What hubs and rims do you have on it ?

I'm only 6.2 feet! Not ridden it yet.... waiting on the seatpost to complete it!

The wheels are just on it for the pics. I'm still not sure what tires to put on it. And the wheels will change with the tires..

Got some black Onza porcs, whitewall Panaracer Magic's or amberwall IRC Piranha's.

Any ideas??

bargaintastic

like it a lot

nice i also have one

Thanks all! Got some new pics. Changed the tires; like the black porcs. And put some yellow salsa grips on it. Also change the bar to the original Muddy Fox!

But, I've got a question. What shall I do with the cables; black or yellow??

This takes me back. My first blast on an MTB around Grizedale involved one of these. I decided there and then it was for me.

Nice find!
I had a courier Mega from the same year as that, in bright yellow! It too was a massive 22" frame! and i'm only 5ft 11!! How i rode it off road i do not know?? I ended up selling it to a guy who was 6ft 7" and it was perfect for him.

Great bikes.

Yellow cable would be too over the top in my opinion. I'd go for black or grey cables as they won't distract from the colour of the frame or the yellow logos. Of course if they made fluorescent green cables then that would be perfect to blend in with the frame.
