1989 Raleigh Montage *UPDATED*

[Beta]

Rear Derailleur: SHIMANO LX

People expect Shimano Deore LX when they read this, but Shimano Exage 300 LX was a lot cheaper back in those days.
Nice retrostuff though.

slight update, including my (one NOS one used michelins and missmatched crudguards.... nothings one coloured or themed so i dont mind haha plus i dont think they make it look too bad... the tyres make it look a bit used but, they will get dirty anyway so not a problem

Jeez this forum is bringing back some memories :shock: I had one of these for a while back in the early 90s.

I clicked on the Muddy Fox Courier link as well, I used to ride one of those over in Switzerland a lot and loved it, it belonged to my aunty until I crashed it badly with my girlfriend at the time on the back. Made a bit of a mess of both wheels and the frame, bikes, snow, beer and shots of grappa, not a good combo...

errrr,,, anyone want to buy my Montage? Too many bikes in the shed.... frame and forks only. Looks about the same size as the one on this thread.
I use it as a trailer towing machine but have a Stumpy for that now

What it looks like now, Got thumbies and swapped the tyres for something more in keeping with its age.. Plus they ride better than those specialized things....
