Sold Price cut! Early Overbury’s Wildcat? 1980s Fillet brazed frame set.

[doctor-bond]

I’m interested but I don’t normally have geared bikes so am just working out what parts I’d need to buy that I don’t have in my heaps of parts….

I’ve got a bunch of stuff that could work with it. Message me if you need more deets.

I reckon run it as a SS. The long horizontal drops will allow it.

I have had / have many, many SS bikes. This may be my first geared MTB…

Thinking of an early/mid 80s Suntour build, either dirt drop or bullmoose/motorcycle style bars. BUT might mod the frame by adding another tube like a klunker or Breezer with additional stays running up to the headtube...

Wouldn't want to inflict that on the Overbury's - too nice for that. Reminds me of your Roberts cross frame in a way @PhillB !

Yes, I like your first suggestion bull moose bars would be awesome...I have been hoping someone would buy it for a few weeks... not too many of them about.

And a decent size too! Been looking at it since it came up for sale

However I have a load of bikes/projects that have yet to start. What's wrong with us all, looking for the next project before we've dealt with the others!!!
