  • interested pending details

  • 2nd dibs

  • Sorry kidding, wrong thread

  • I hoard shit and with another baby on the way, a few things need to go to make some room.
    As above, I believe this is from the '90's from a previous email conversation with the Pashley factory.
    Would like to see it stay within the LFGSS community and get ridden.
    I built it up (badly and in a rush) for the 2013 Tweed Run after a brief but failed dalliance (phew) with hipsterism.
    Realise it's anti but as potential so please read on.....

    Here's what you need to know:
    90's bombproof Pashley frame (I purchased this as a frame)
    Powder-coated red by Armourtex
    New headbadge and transfers
    Velo Orange Porteur Bars with Brooks Slender Leather Honey grips
    Nitto Techchomic stem
    Tange Levin 1" headset
    Pletscher twin leg stand
    Sturmey Archer FCT60AA Cranks with 48T ring
    MKS Sylvan pedals
    Brooks B66 saddle
    Sturmey Archer S2C 2 speed rear hub with coaster brake (half turn backwards to change gear)
    Sturmey Archer Track HBT Front Hub
    Sun Ringle Rhyno Lite rims
    Wheels built by Cycles UK in Greenwich
    Bontrager SR1 26 x 1.5 slick tyres
    MKS chain tugs
    Universal Spring Bell
    Always kept inside

    The bits that you need to know.
    This bike has no front brake. You need to put one on so it's legal and also for your own safety.
    The current headset cups that are in there are 1" and the frame requires cups that are slightly bigger than an inch. I have the original cups that you can put back in.
    The chainline is out. The BB is too long so you'll need to do something about this but in saying that, I rode it like this for 500 or so km round London and didn't die but I don't want you to die so you should do something about it.
    Washers - The front basket bit attaches with bolts. Should be removed and reattached with some leather washers so it doesn't squeak.
    Throw the red chain in the creek and replace with something nicer, put some mudguards on it and you'll have something use-able.

    I'd like £50.00 for it please. Collection only from Lewisham/Deptford bridge this weekend preferably. Please only dibs if you intend to follow through with purchase. It's fairly heavy and wide at the front.

  • bargain! not quite what i'm after but glws

  • Absolute bargain! Wish I had somewhere to put this.

  • I will collect tomorrow maybe tonight if still available please. Sending you a message now.

  • I'll take this if it's still available. Can collect tomorrow night.

  • Unlikely 3rd DIBS

  • Thanks for your interest. The fine man that is @1oOne rode away on this on the weekend.
