Hi, Well everyone likes a restoration so heres loads of pics of my "SE" Murray Mauler i managed to source.
This is a 1981 and is almost all original apart from, grips, pedals and stem.
This aint gonna be to eveyones taste as these were pretty low end bikes back then but not everyone could afford the top end stuff, and we all had to start somewhere.
I never actually saw one before this but i have owned a cruiser Puch Murray (british version) which is the same frame along with the Murray x24".
Heres some info taken from bmxultra.com -
bmxultra.com: The Mauler
Scot:  We were so back-ordered with PK's and Quads, we needed frames to sell... Later , I designed the 24" Mauler and had it produced by Murray for us to again compete with the overseas makers. We really prided ourselves on "Made in USA" and stuck it out as long as we could with all models. Unfortunately, Murray was unable to meet our quality standards, and we discontinued the line.


Shame about the seat but im still working on it so i put a different one on for the time being,
Really pleased how it turned out, more of a beach cruiser i reckon. :daumenhoch:
Enjoy-































Thanks for looking :daumenhoch:

HUTCHMAN:
great results!! i'm curious, what headset is it?

dirtskirt:
Not sure, no stamps any where , and i think the bearing cups maybe new ish, they just look nicely machined.
What you thinking?

bigfatolly:
i like it-makes a change to see a lower end resto it  screams late 70s :4_17_5:

Thanks, it feels strange with no brake levers etc.

Pedal back brake instead.
