S&G Muddy Fox by Araya - 1984 - MB-MF26DX

[DamianB]

Posting here in case it is of interest to RetroBike members, details of a 1983/1983 S&G Muddy Fox Araya which I plan to sell
I believe the great majority of components are original, and the frame is thing of brazed beauty. I feel it deserves a better home, being one of the very first mountain bikes.
Any interest, please get in touch

Very nice, can't imagine it being hard to find a home for that.

Lovely, looks almost identical to my MF26-1SPR - love the Japanese model names!
Looks like yours has XC mechs instead of the LeTech ones and a different stem/bar combo.

@Gtpulse - Very similar indeed. Same beautiful frame welds.

Yep - think it’s called tig brazing in the catalogue, unsure if that’s just a lost in translation way of saying fillet brazed or something slightly different.
