Malvern Star SuperMax, Maxi and Speedwell Sting
While researching information for my '81 SuperMax, '83 Speedwell Sting and up-coming '79 5-Hole gusset builds, I got so sick of finding information then losing it again that I started copying images of bikes, parts and advertising material into a single place. To assist others, I have reproduced this information over the following pages .. most of the information can be found on OzBMX and BMXMuseum and I am not pretending that this informtion will replace either of these valuable resources.
Please browse through all of the material I have collected:
If you have any Malvern Star or Speedwell information or photos, please forward them to me and I will add them to the site. I am especially interested in brochures and advertisements as these are most valuable when restoring bikes back to their original glory.

Hall of Fame: Malvern Star Maxi
The SuperMax and Maxi range of bikes typically shared basic componentry but differed in colour schemes and the level of accessories fitted - with the Maxi typically getting lower cost parts and these bikes were aimed at the lower end of the market. Originally, the Maxis were released with Tange pinch forks and foot brakes with the remaqining parts - seat, Takagi cranks, headset and so on - common to the SuperMax.
