Samios Foods Posted 8August, 2014 Report Share Posted 8August, 2014 Hi Guys and Gals, Being new here, There are always questions that need answers. I found a bike hanging in my mates shed that has Porsche stickers on it as well as made in germany. Can anyone tell me whether Porsche actually made these Mountain Bikes and where can i get the Suspension Forks repaired. I know this isn't Cars or more importantly Porsches but has the name that says Quality. Cheers Theo Z................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JV911 Posted 8August, 2014 Report Share Posted 8August, 2014 Any idea what model it is? There have been a few road bikes, hybrid and MTBs over the years of varying standards and none actually made by Porsche to my knowledge. As for getting it repaired, any decent bike shop could do it as the parts would be pretty generic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samios Foods Posted 8August, 2014 Author Report Share Posted 8August, 2014 Thanks for the reply. Nah He said he has taken it to all the big Mountain Bike stores and they just look at him with puzzled faces. This doesn't have generic parts the frame i think is alloy and the suspension forks are carbon with intergrated triple tree? kinda headset. My mate reckons it might be very late eighties or early ninties. Koolest looking thing Ive seen for quite a while (except for my 002 TTR) Will try to get a pic up soon. Cheers Theo Z.............

Russ Posted 8August, 2014 Report Share Posted 8August, 2014 I did a quick google and there's a few different "Porsche" mountain bikes (I think they're 'Porsche Design' rather than the Automobile company though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugh Posted 8August, 2014 Report Share Posted 8August, 2014 Unfortunately they were all pretty shite and very overpriced when new. Bit of fun now though if you could pick it up for peanuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michel Posted 11August, 2014 Report Share Posted 11August, 2014 Votec then storck rebadged a lot of the MTB bikes for Porsche - cant comment for sure on the roadies. Parts should be avail - Internet. Though Typically under specced, overweight and insanely priced.., look at the dealer prices for their current lifestyle choices. ;0 look at the sad gumtree ads. not a 'riders' bike for obvious reasons ... If it costs you nuthin then fix it and ride it hard in a 90's kinda way. Though You ain't goin to get any cred on the track...and the appellation wanker may be slung your way (heck your driving a porsche whats new ) , if not ridden with enough verve and irony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
