gjbiker Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Hey all you TLR fans. A mate of mine has just purchased a TLR 200. He would like to know a bit of history behind it if possible- 1985 (?) white paint, red frame. Frame no begins MD09-5100.... It's in really good nik so I offered him forty quid for it but he say no ?????? Any links, info etc would be greatly appreciated, muchas gracias in advance.

frontroomautos Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 It sounds like the Reflex model, as far as I know same bike with steel wheel rims. Not sure if the gear ratio is different (I suspect not). Sought after little bike though & very nice, good fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g4321 Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 the main differences between the Reflex and the Normal TLR200E are (as far as I am aware) 1 Steel Rims compared to alloy rims 2 33mm forks compared to 35mm forks Colour is deceiving there are normal TLR200E's out there which are white as well as red, all UK Reflexes are white. Many people think a white TLR200 is a Reflex - only if it says so on the side panel, has spindly forks and steel rims. The TLR200E is from around 1985, the Reflex is later circa 1987? - (I might be wrong with this last bit???) Gordon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
