Custom Muddy Fox MTB

Some bad photos of a very cool bike. This vintage, custom Araya Muddy Fox MTB showed up to the Buggylab opening party last Friday...


So fucking cool, Spin and Spinergy wheels, White Industries cranks, Kashimax on a layback post, Primo Tenderizer pedals, Nitto Bosco style cockpit and a stick shift...




We are on a mission to find this bike in the daylight and shoot the fuckery out of it. Stay tuned.

Knowing FiN he'll be riding this into the ground for the foreseeable future, be sure to follow his Instagram account to see where he takes it.

3rd Dispatch from Midwest Correspondent

Hello from MN. I've got a couple of half-baked post ideas mixed together here for your viewing enjoyment!

In October I went out to the Witches Hat tower and the river to see some fall leaves:




This is the nice skyline view from Prospect Park.  After the park I rode over to the Franklin Avenue bridge.



Also while riding around this fall I caught a few bike mural pictures at current/former bike shops: This is  Freewheel Bike on the West Bank.



And Sunrise Cyclery on the Greenway.


And The Alt



Penn Cycle
 on Lake Street with a nice Pee-Wee Herman homage



And  the CRC Coffee Bar (RIP)



Next post will show my winter season bike conversion and maybe some snow-- stay tuned!
