Can anyone help please? I have a 1987 Saracen Tufftrax (original styling with rear u-brake) and my gears are beginning to slip. I believe this means replacement of the freewheel or cassette but I'm not sure whether my bike has freewheel or cassette! Does anyone know? :?: The next...

Need a Headset locknut for my 1987 Saracen Tufftrax. The original appears to be cross-threaded (rotates but does not tighten). Sorry, not sure whether it is 1" or 1 1/8th". Any help appreciated.

Saracen Tufftrax - original 1987 vintage How about my bike as a nomination? - An original Saracen Tufftrax 1987 model complete with rear bottom bracket located u-brakes. In almost totally original condition. A fantastic ride and so light to handle. A real classic retrobike! Bought...

Re: Saracen Your bike looks great to me - I just bought a 1987 Tufftrax and that handles great and has stood the test of time. Was considering new bike but when I saw the Saracen at such a low price I had to have it! Besides, I prefer quality steel frames and they're a rarity these days.

Looks good to me! Don't bin it! I'm sure someone on this site will take it off your hands - how much do you want for it?

Hi, has anyone got any information/brochures/pictures of the Raleigh Equator ATB. Was closely based on the Raleigh M-TRAX and was of chromo construction with Shimano Altus components. I have one of these bikes in excellent condition (just a few minor scrapes on the forks) but have never seen...
