1987 Muddy Fox conversion Chris king, Paul, Middleburn

For sale is my beloved 1987 Muddy Fox courier conversion.

It’s been many things..long tourer, geared city bike and now a very snappy trick driven single speed. Amazing for the pump track and city cycling but also really fun on the local trails.

Wheels are: Blue Chris King hubs, rear is a single speed but you can ‘dingle’ it probably 3-4 cogs if you want to. Rear cog is also a beautiful Chris King 19T.

Mavic rims and brand new Maxxis Hookworm tires. 26”x2.5 I’m running a tensioner at the moment because the large tires don’t allow lots of movement to get the chain tension good, but bit smaller tires does mean you can run without if preferred. I have run knobbly 2.2s with mudguards on it no problem.

Cranks are a vintage Middleburn set with metal DMR pedals. Front chainring is 36T. Bottom bracket is original and in excellent condition. It was cleaned with new bearings and regreased last month. Running a dream. Suntour parts in the 80s….

Brakes are Paul levers with Shimano deore V brakes. They are set up very snappy for tricks/city riding but you can easily adjust. All brand new including pads and jag wire cables.

Also new - headset and Nitto stem holding nitto “for shred” handlebars.
Turbo saddle too.

Please ask any questions and look at the frame carefully. It is nearly 36 years old! Structurally fine, just a few dings/scratches.

I don’t really want to break the bike apart but might consider. I’m selling as a baby on the way so I need the space and money.

Love this - totally see why the price is what it is, but you’re looking at a very narrow market - I reckon you’re going to have to split that to get anything out of it? GLWS 👍

Cool bike. Agree that you'll never get that much for it complete - part it out
