October 10, 200718 yr 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. GJ
October 13, 200718 yr 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.

October 14, 200718 yr Author Definately NOT a Reflex - I suspect I sold the owner the bike recently Did you sell it to a big chap called Gav MacKay ?
October 16, 200718 yr 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
October 23, 200718 yr the Reflex was available in America and Canada in 1986 and 1987 I bought one new back then, $2700.- Tom
