• My bars have been bent out of shape, stem cracked and grips have been shredded possibly after being knocked by a van while locked up, or attempted nicking (see pics).

    It's an '86 muddy fox courier which I use every day for pretty much everything including long rides as well as shopping + commuting. I'm not too fussy about keeping it's 'vintage' looks but I do like riser bars and I'm keen to have a canti brake friendly setup (I really like the cable routing on the old stem), and bars which will work with my wald basket.

    If anyone near stoke newington/finsbury park/hackney area has some second hand parts that would suit this bike let me know, happy to collect. Ideally low budget but I could be easily tempted by something nice like those bullmoose bars+stem combos you see sometimes. My very unrealistic dream is to find some velo orange klunkers for sale nearby... you never know
