Love the old MF Couriers, This is my long term project. Fighting me all the way so far with everything seized, stem, seat post & crank which I had to cut off with a junior hacksaw. It's a keeper though.

I thought I'd replied to this thread, but apparently not!

I've got one of them there fancypants red Couriers. Despite a lot of patina, it scrubs up pretty well, and the rough look means that I can lock it up outside the local Sainsburys without worrying too much about some scrote stealing it.

Lovely condition, did you T-cut the frame or just clean up like that? Looks like new!

Anyone interested in adding another MF to their stable I've just posted a lovely Courier Prestige for sale that's too small for me. Take a look!

fanx!

I think I might've used t-cut at one point, as my car at the time was the same colour, but I'm not entirely sure. I certainly use turtle wax on it, mostly to try and keep the rust in check and protect the rest from dings. That stuff works wonders.

I’ll add my MF 26 B here, really pleased how it’s turned out.

Still busy tidying and gently updating where needed but definitely a most comfortable ride - currently after an Araya rear wheel/rim and hub to complete it but a joy to ride

Just trying to do a bit of research about this bike.
I work as a mechanic for a cycling charity. I personally have a courier but don’t know much about the seeker, or how much it’s worth to the charity to sell.
Cheers
