Re: .

Looks like the Ranger model that i'm after, might be slightly newer though.
V.nice i am quite jealous

If I were to strip this, do you fancy the frame Mike?

It needs some serious TLC but you could have it for nowt. BTW you ever do anything with that Muddy Fox frame that sent your way with Dave (daj)?

No mate, I've started visiting that scrappy on my breaks but no luck yet, he hasn't been set up that long.

This is from my top secret scrappy where I've had a fair bit of success. The biggest pile of BSO's you'll ever see but the odd gem in there.

Pm me if you want to know where it is, I'll take you there in the boot, blindfolded.

its a countryman my boss used to have one complete with the deore friction shifters and the wienmann grips. i dont think the ranger was 531 but i might be wrong

The Ranger was 531 too. This could be either a Countryman or a Ranger. the components look period therefore likely original, so if you know someone who had the same kit on a Countryman then that's the likely answer, although the RH shifter on this one is SIS that'll be more to do with date than model

So most likely a Countryman

6 speed SIS what does that make it 86/87?

 

[Chute55uk]

well by memory he had the bike when i started and that was in 87 it was at least a year old then

Here's some pics of an what looks to be an 84/85 Countryman

Really nice colour scheme in my opinion!
