Which Murray parts most often require repair?
- The bicycles produced by Murray come in a rich array of types. However, the foot pedal is one part that commonly needs replacement.
- When Murray and Puch were producing their Moped from 1979-1982, no one thought that the motorized bike would become a classic. Those who choose to rebuild one of these bikes will start by finding themselves refinishing the frame and replacing many of the original parts with OEM equivalents up to and including the unique Stewart Warner “backward and sideways” speedometer.
- Murray riding lawn mowers use belts to transfer power to the blade. The belts stretch over time and require replacement. The process is doable but complex.
- The snow auger drive belt is the major part that needs periodic replacement in Murray snow removal equipment. This belt is the mechanism that drives the tines. Over time, the belt may stretch and become ineffective.
