I have to admit defeat.. my garage is full of bike, and I no longer have the health to ride them, so it's selling up time! First up is my 1988 Muddy Fox Courier, which is unusual in that it's technically a Tushingham B52 wearing red trousers and someone else's name badge. It still pretty...

The easiest way to start this build is to link to the sales ad that I collected from: free muddy vox pathfinder for restoration by enthusiast I had a feeling from the initial posts that the seller wasn't too bike savvy, so rather than ask questions, I thought I'd take a punt and sent a PM with...

As is often the case; what began as a search for 26" wheels has turned into something rather more complicated. :rolleyes: I seem to have ended up with this: Good bits e-stay!! (counts for a lot) It hasn't snapped (yet) No stuck seatpost or BB Aaaand, issues... The headset does NOT want to...

Time to sell another bike that I bought and never used. I even went to the trouble of getting it sent to my parents (230 miles away), so my wife wouldn't notice! :roll: This one's a.. 1997 Giant ATX 970D, 18.5" with colour-coded RST Mozo forks. £40 Collect from Stockport, or I can post it...

Hiya! I can barely ride a bike these days, so I'm getting rid of some of the stuff I've accumulated. First on the hit list is a frame I intended to use, but got distracted before I could build it up. It is a.... 1993 Orange Prestige 19" frame and rigid forks, powder coated in shiny metal...

I got a new bike! It arrived while the wife was in, but I somehow managed to survive with all my extremities intact. One in, two out, she reckons (bikes, not extremities!). Luckily, I had two frames I wanted to sell anyway. :D What did I buy? One of these thingies.. Built in the UK by...

Time to eject a couple of unfinished (unstarted) projects from the household! 1989 Saracen Tufftrax (19", I think) I haven't measured this, yet. Will do that tomorrow, when it's not raining. I don't have the tools to remove the BB, so that's included, and the headset is still attached...

Hi! I need a Kona Project Two fork to replace the gaspipe fork on a new project (it seems to weigh almost as much as the frame!). If the current fork's anything to go by, then it needs to be 1" diameter, 410mm A-C, and 130mm steerer with 35mm of thread. The headtube of the frame is 100mm...

This morning wasn't quite like other days. I didn't have to go to work, my son had a full day at nursery, and the wife had to go to London for the day. Cool! That meant I could finally take some photos of all the bike junk I'd acquired and flog it! So, I went into the loft and dug out a...

edit: Frame sold on ebay Hiya! I'm selling my 23" 1977 Carlton Cobra (collection only, until I can get my hands on a box for it): Saddle (and cat) not included Info: 23" 1977 Carlton Cobra (Nottingham-built, Tru-Wel tubes) Powder coated green (still have the Raleigh badge, just not...

Sad to say; I've finally come to the conclusion that this bike is just too small for me, so up for sale it goes: 1988 Reflex ALX89 17" (16.5" c-c) frame (Easton E9 anodized aluminium tubes bonded to steel) Shimano Deore MT60 groupset (U Brake is MT61) Biopace chain rings Maillard hubs with...

Hiya! I've got a few bits to sell after splitting my Carlton Cobra. Most of the newer bits have barely been used (some not used at all!). Prices include postage: Shimano 600 Arabesque downtube shifters. £15 Weinmann brake levers with Carlton branded hoods. £15 Weinmann 610 and 750 center pull...

Need to clear some space in the shed, so I'm selling a couple of frames. First up is a 19" '95 Saracen Tufftrax. The BB is a bit stuck, and the powder coat has flaked off on the fork and the top of the seat tube, but otherwise it's not too bad. £35 inc postage? SOLD! Both this and the MF...

Not one, but two! With totally different frames? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Muddy-Fox-Lim ... 1373473209 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mens-Muddy-Fo ... 1392540693

Can anyone suggest a 1" headset removal tool that will fit in a short (4") head tube? I've got an Icetoolz Xpert 1" - 1 1/8" headset removal tool, which works fine most of the time, but on my Reflex ALX89, it doesn't have enough space to de-compress and engage the cup. The tool is about 30cm...

I guess here is the best place to put this. Raleigh Twenties certainly weren't for offroad use, so they're not a BMX or an MTB. They were intended for use on roads, so I reckon that makes them road bikes! :) This all started with an idea last autumn. It was looking like another windy...

Hi all! After foolishly not deleting my saved searches, I recently acquired a Muddy Fox Courier from fleabay. Here's the pic from the listing: So, what's wrong with that picture? I found out when I tried to work out it's age.. Lugged? 87/88/89. Decals? 1988. Components? 1990? Colour? erm...

How tall would you have to be to ride one of these? :shock: Doesn't look quite as original as the advertiser states, but might be of interest to someone of a taller stature, and it's only 40 squids (if it's still available) http://www.preloved.co.uk/adverts/show/ ... urier.html
