Girls drop bar road racing bike (Glasgow), will suit ages 6-10 roughly. Based on an old Raleigh, this was completely rebuilt (including all bearings) as the 'CSC Edgar Milano Juniores'about 2/3 years ago, including the addition of Tektro CX top brake levers (see photos on Gumtre). The bike has 5 speed friction shift gears and is fitted with excellent Michelin tyres.
Well known to the Glasgow guys, the kids actually rebuilt this themselves (with me taking to to bits again and doing it properly once they went to bed...)

Was on GFGSS but that site is gone now.
The paint is a little worn around some of the cables, you would probably want to repaint it in your child's favourite colour and replace the vinyls with something custom. (If not I can give you a can of the original colour) This is reflected in the price. It will tear down easily enough, it was well greased when re-assembled.
£65.00 collected, or send a courier.
