Moulton ATB History

Moulton ATB History

One of 361 Moulton ATB frames made between 1988 and 1992.  The Moulton is probably one of the earliest full suspension designs with the leading link type fork and rubber rear suspension.  The smaller 20" wheels made for a stronger wheel but they would fall into "V" shaped ravines much easier than traditional 26" wheels.    The hairpin style frame allowed for a lower top tube which would give more clearance when dismounting, especially useful when riding off-road.  The frame is easily taken apart for transport.  A single tie rod connects the head tube to the bottom bracket.  After removing the head tube bolt, it unscrews from the bottom bracket stud.  The main frame Allen bolt would then be removed and, after disconnecting the cables, the frame would break in two.

Gabriella's Song (Helen Sjoholm)

 

我的生活屬於我自己

在這短暫片刻屬於我自己

我的渴望把我帶到這裡

無論是得是失，這都是我選擇的道路

通往天堂到道路遙遠

但是我的執著與信念，必然領我走上正途

我要感受我的存在

在我活著的每一天

我要自由自在

我要感受到我的存在

瞭解我活得有多好

我從沒有迷失自我

我只是一時沉睡

也許我根本沒有選擇

但是我有活下去的信念

我只要過得快樂

做真正的自己，堅強又自由

在這裡看著白天黑夜

我的生活屬於我自己

我所夢想的天堂就在那裡

我一定能找到它
