Hi All, for sale is an 80's Dawes Milk Race road bike that's recently been converted into a fixie/single speed rig. Everything runs smooth and quiet, including the bottom bracket and headset which have just been serviced.
The frame is in good used condition, undamaged, no dents, cracks etc and is made from Reynolds 500 Cr-Mo tubing. The seat tube is 60cm C-T and top tube is 58cm C-C, so the bike should suit a taller rider between 6' 0" - 6' 3".
The bars are unbranded steel drops quite narrow at 38cm wide (if you prefer I can switch them out for bull horns), with brand new tape and new cross-top levers fitted, while the brakeset is a new dual pivot unbranded one with new pads. The saddle is also in great condition, an almost unused Charge Spoon with Cr-Mo rails.
The wheels are also almost new Alex Rims RPD15 rims laced with stainless steel spokes to Formula hubs. The rear has never seen a brake and comes with a flip flop hub with an 18 tooth cog and an 18 tooth freewheel installed. The tyres are brand new Vittoria Zaffiros (700x23c).
Lastly the chainset comes with a 46 tooth chainring fitted (if that's a bit spiny I have larger chainrings) and the pedals are unbranded flat MTB type.
I'm was asking for £140, then £125, now £122 o.n.o. The bike's in London E14 for viewing/collection, although I can ship nationwide for £19. Please PM with any questions, cheers Kev.
