We're driving back to London from a parental visit and stopped in Norwich for a coffee. We passed a bric-a-brac shop near our old flat and popped in. This Pashley was in there for £275. We argued them down to £230 and walked out with it.
I bought some spanners from Poundland and took it apart in a car park. Miraculously it went in the car. I'm now sat squashed in the back of a Corsa, covered in parts, whizzing up the A11.
It seems in good condition. No pitting on the chrome. Gears all work. Needs a little clean and service. Maybe new tyres, chain and saddles.
Any tips? Thinking I'll just clean it and service it. Size-wise it's a bit small but will be good for little jaunts to the pub or whatever. No good for long journeys probably.
