Hi there, my girlfriend and I have been pondering a tandem for a while and, having now got our own place nr Wembley (with garden space - winner!) I've been keeping my eyes skinned on ebay.
I was wondering if anyone could volunteer some advice on frames/builders to aim for/avoid? There's an 80s Motobecane (here) that could be a good frame to start with but I don't want to end up investing loads of time/money in a fundamentally poor frame...
There's a couple ready-to-go tandems I've seen second hand (here and here), would they be a better starting place?
Looking forward to the tandem experience!
