Copied over from my Gumtree ad.

Up for sale is my trusty Dawes Galaxy tourer. Its a beautiful vintage sky blue (reynolds 531!) steel frame.

David from DT Cycles kindly stripped the bike, replaced some bearings in the front wheel, replaced the cables and housing and gave the bike a great service. So she's ready to be cycled away!

I am only selling as I recently purchased another single speed, so this pretty thing has to go. She has been with me for 4 years and has been across the Europe! If you've never rode a steel frame, you're missing out. Smooooooth!

It's a large frame, and fits me comfortably (I'm 6'1), has all the original Suntour parts, upgraded tyres to gatorskins and a new Dawes saddle.

Shoot me an email if you have any questions.

Hi @petefrombow, sorry, i was doing a mad copy/paste ad before a meeting. Apologies!

I am looking for £260 on Gumtree, but i'd be prepared to knock some money off for a fellow LFGSS member :)

Old Galaxies will be like the new 80s MTB before we know it.

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:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
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

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
