Can anyone help identify this "retro" muddyfox frame?

OK I've searched a lot and can't find anything that matches. Muddyfox made a lot of bikes over time, so this is less of an answer and more of a dump of observations:

Points to note

• Overall the bike looks "thick" - the chainstays are chunky, as are the seatstays.
• Having trackends for rear dropouts is quite unusual on a MTB, but less unusual on a BMX.
• The frame reinforcing gussets behind the head tube are unusual for a MTB.
• The front suspension looks newer than mid 2000 because it lacks the stanchion boots which were common on earlier forks.
• Paint on forks looks identical to frame so its likely to be original, making the bike a 26" hardtail downtube

From a distance, it looks like a BMX, with a relatively low seatpost clamp.

I bet there's no brazeon mount for a front derailleur - and it may help to look closely for any paint marks where a bandon derailleur might have mounted. If nothing found, I'd say this was a 1x setup from new.

At the rear, you have an electric motor now. Was there any indication of a rear derailleur at any point ? If not, this suggests the bike was a single speed OR it was fitted with an internally geared hub from new, both of which need trackends to set the chain/belt tension.

UPSHOT I think its a mid 2000 bigger kid's frame, designed to "evoke" the BMX, so possibly intended for teenage boys who have outgrown their 20" BMX.

It might even be called a 26" BMX in the right light.
