Description
This is a Rad bike!
I'm sad to see it go but you can't chuck out sixty miles on a single speed and still feel cycle fresh. It's perfect for cruising around town and doing short trips. Awesome on the flat and perfect for rolling hills but your going to have to slow down and push hard on long and steep climbs.
It's an older frame I picked up of eBay and been used for 6 months on and off. I have been adding extra parts as I go. It has a couple of scratches and a little dent on the top tube but it just adds to its character. The major scratches are in the pictures but there are smaller ones as well but it all adds to its vintage feel. The brake levers, pads and brake cables (inner and outer) are new. The tyres have plenty of trend on them. I am also adding larger tyres and inner tubes in case you don't like the slick tyres. The larger tyres are really good for winter, plenty of grip.
This is not a fixed gear bike it has two free wheels with a larger and smaller cog on each side. This means you can take the wheel out and swap for easier gear and not have to slam your rear wheel to brake.
