MUDDY FOX REVAMP_
Another retro rebuild with a couple of modern add-ons!
If you’re after just one bike in your life that can do almost everything, you’d do well to consider choosing from a discipline designed for long miles, and some form of off-roading; a good compromise of comfort and robustness.
With that considered, almost any bike that falls under the heading of “tourer”, “cross bike”, “all-road”, or “gravel”, will be perfect a candidate. That’s exactly what we have here… just with the added comfort of a nice high-rise cockpit.
A well-build 90’s Muddy Fox Mixte frameset serves as the base. UK made, with the 80’s West Coast MTB scene as its inspiration.
Some period-correct Deore XT hardware, and neo-retro finishing kit.
