I have done the cables and tyres on both these bikes. Neither is 100% original but both will ride nice with a new headset.
First is a 1990 Tru temper Steel frame Gary Fisher Montare. The year after GF changed to a chromoly frame. The Bike has decent components and great patina. It has new Kenda K-829 tyres and looks mean at night! (17"ish) XT rear mech and decent wheels.
Second Bike is a 1994 Japanese made Muddy Fox Monarch with Ritchey dropouts and Chromoly double butted tubing. Its fitted with Italy only NOS Kenda Green tyres. (19"ish) Much better bike than the price would suggest. 24 speed in 1994 and made before Muddy Fox became muddyfox. Much better than a courier.
I also have a 1998 Gary Fisher Big Sur that needs to go. Rockshox, 24 speed it looks horendous but rides ok. Perfect for a project. The wheels are Specialized Stout hubbed and its decent aluminium. (I thought about stripping the whole bike of paint)
The bikes are near Huddersfield in Yorkshire. They ride but will need headsets.
I am looking for £100 each but don't really know what they are worth. If I got £250 back for all three I would be happy. I am sure people will let me know what there worth.
If they don't sell I will have to keep them in my bathroom and restore when more time.
