    Early Muddyfox Lovers Anonynmous

    Way back I posted this: Well I've also found this in another thread: I wonder if that is the same rider? Same colour Yellow/Red Muddy Fox, same shorts, same glasses, lock in same location.

    Muddy Fox 1997 Catalogue

    JPEG would be my usual, but the A3 scanner only emails me PDF files.

    Muddy Fox 1997 Catalogue

    Can't add as a Media item, as PDF doesn't seem to be accepted.

    90’s Carrera Optima and wheels I picked up earlier

    The number has me stumped. It looks like 306B0V05 and 0450. Mainstream frame numbers that don't start with a letter are not commonly seen. I can't even figure out which digits are for the date.

    GT scrap yard find

    Yes May 1998. Any likely Fairly. GT really did shop around for manufacturers, there are around 10 different schemes for numbers!

    New bike unknown frame

    Found this thread due to the Carrera reply. My 1991 Carrera Epic road bike has a 'U' number, U11109036 which is November 1991. In terms of KHS, I've only seen 1991 and 1993 frames with a 'U' frame number. By far the biggest majority are Diamondback, lots of their frames from 1990 to 1995...

    For Sale Avid Tri-Align, Pulstar wheels, Manitou HT frameset

    The rims are 117s, not 217s - They're still very nice though

    I'm building a Ridgeback 603 for some reason

    I think those Speed Dial 5 brake levers are designed for V-Brakes - They will probably work with cantilevers but if braking isn't as good as you hoped for, maybe change them. I started a discussion here about the different Avid levers...

    Muddy Fox 1997 Catalogue

    Run out of time today, but I have the PDF files and will upload each page individually. It's too big to upload as one PDF.

    Help with Marin frame numbers please!

    It might not follow the patterns, but its pretty common. I've got examples of MA, MC, ME, MH, MJ, MK and MT numbers from confirmed Marin frames.

    1997-1998 Giant ATX 850

    Frame number indicates 1998, so your Shimano codes all match up with this. Also explains why it isn't in the 1997 catalogue.

    1997-1998 Giant ATX 850

    Dad's 1997 Giant Track Expert also has a threaded headset https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/1998-giant-track-expert.485642/ What's the frame number on this ATX 850?

    90’s Carrera Optima and wheels I picked up earlier

    Quite a few of the parts have been swapped on that Carrera, but I'd be interested in the frame number if you can find it! Thanks!

    Wanted Marin expert

    Pop up the frame number too. That should give the date and factory info.
