Beartrap pedals... Someone taught me this once upon a time: "cheap bikes don't get cool pedals" or something like that.
Looks like decent Shimano thumb shifters, but the amount of plastic on top makes me think it's not Deore level
I picked up this Cannondale hooligan today from a gentleman in Montreal. He upgraded the drive train to 11 speed Alfine and hydraulic brakes. I've always thought these were cool bikes.
@crazydave58 , this is waaaay cool. I can't believe I've never heard of these before. Perhaps it's only distributed north of the border? I really like my '50s (?) Moulton but I'm putting one of these on my list.......
They are very popular in Europe I believe. Ya don’t see many in North America.
I love Moultons too. I have a 1965 F frame and a newer Moulton tsr A8.
I don't know which model I have but I felt that it was always kinda cool: maybe because it is just so different than "mainstream" bikes. and it was a dual suspension bike before there was dual suspension mountain bikes. If I send you a pic later today (got to go to physical Therapy this AM) do you think you could identify it or come close?.............
Maybe...u might want to post it on the Moulton F frame group. On Facebook. Lots of Moulton experts on there.
I put on my Brooks saddle, installed riser bars, new grips and some small adjustments today. Took it for my 1st ride and all went well. It rides alot like my Moulton tsr.
Thanx for the input. I will look into that as soon as I return for North Carolina.....
Cool. Niice upgrades.........

Killer bike! But I think the wheelset might be a bit confused, do they both have disks?

*I think it's older than 1998. That's good in my opinion. By 98, they were using their proprietary metal matrix tubing, a steel/ceramic composite. It would look more like aluminum, with the fatter tubes and big welds:
I suspect that yours is a 92, using butted Tange tubes. Yummy

Wish they still made those
Paid 10 bucks
