Long shot, but on the look out for an old flat bar touring bike. Ideally with Reynolds tubing. The Dawes Street ones (Life, Easy, Sharp etc) are all pretty sweet. Canti-lever brakes. Thumb shifters rather than grip shift. I usually ride a 52-54cm frame. Looking to pref spend under £100, so not expecting anything fancy. I'm in London. Can collect.

Might have something for you. 653....53cm...triple ...thumb shifters...8 speed (indexed) just being serviced....but £150 and I am in Essex (near Braintree)...could deliver for an extra £15...nitto flat bars with dual pivot brakes...not cantis.

Cheers. Pretty keen on cantilever brakes ideally though. Going for the fatty tyres.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
