Beschreibung
Renovated for this year's Classic Cycling event and Great British Adventure, the Eroica Britannia, this handsome bicycle covered the 100 miles incident free and was a very comfortable and stable ride with good enough brakes to hurtle down the Derbyshire Peak District hills as fast as a modern bike.
New parts:
Tyres, tubes, rim tape, toe clips & straps, brake blocks front & rear (not pictured), all brake and gear cables, clamped bottle holder, padded bar tape and Italian 'Turbo' leather saddle.
The bike was completely stripped, re-greased and adjusted with as much surface corrosion carefully removed as possible with the chrome wheels coming up a treat. The front wheel has the slightest of visual wobble but it cannot be felt while riding. The ride position is similar to a modern 54cm top tube for someone under 6 foot, as I adjusted the brake levers position slightly and rotated up the drop bars. And the gears will run silently.
Perfect for more low-cost Classic events, general use or as a Student, Uni, Bus Stop or Pub bike.
Wheel reflectors included plus a traditional bell.
N+1 = 11, so it has to go, hence the price for a quick sale.
