A 'Which Bike' test of the 1978 Monty 247 which I now know was called the 247C, the 'C' standing for competition. So it must be suitable for trials I guess cota 1.pdf Edited May 7, 2017 by iconic558 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadof2 Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Interesting. A friend had a 247C. my feeling is it was not as competitive as a Bulto of the same era. I had a 414VE (Bill Brown sold a huge batch of them for only about £500 each new) Andy Roberson did very well or his bike was far from standard. The brakes and handling were Ok to good but the power and back suspension was well short of Maico and the Jap bikes. It was like riding a bucking horse - tried to throw you over the bars .
