Cougar / Terry Dolan / Dolan appreciation thread 😎

Plenty of bikes originating from Dolan/Cougar/Terry Dolan on here for sale, but never see enough as projects or builds… seeing @shonmergatroid do a recent build I thought I’d attempt to get a thread going so there’s a place put these builds!!

I’ll start with the pics attached from various threads, and a few builds/sales -

My latest build for the city, late 90s TT frame 650c wheels

Nice setup, is that an alloy frame??

Aluminium, somewhat a mystery, i think it may have been red originaly judging by some of the paint chips.

Slow burning thread but lots of love to give still

And Alex Dowsett on his junior British national TT champion Dolan bike from 2005

This is why i wonder if mine was like this.
I tried to contact them but i guess they are to commercial now to answer individual "historical" requests.

Heres a few more of mine as its all i can offer to this thread

Nice to see the identity has been kept, that looks a seriously fast practical machine 😎

Thanks for sharing!!

They are classic paper stickers so must of been a quick respray by Dolan ? Or maybe painted by someone else.

Yes a great daily, it will be getting an update in the coming weeks too !

Has this Cougar donated to the shop. Any idea what it's worth?

Deda Zerotre tubing, nothing really special in terms of parts on it though
