So my Gf has sstarted commuting to work for the first time and bloody loves it, even on her clapped out 2014 Carrera shithead MTB/hybrid thing.
I thought for Christmas I would get her a beaut and make cycling a real pleasure!
after some sneeky measurements and indirect questions ("what is your favourite colour".... "do you like those handle bars"etc ) i settled on this beautiful 50cm square Neil Orrell from Bike Radar (as spotted by @MCamb )
Going all chrome components (from the parts box), brown saddle and bar tape, should come out a nice we light weight SS that can transform into an 8speed demon if the cycling really takes.
Hoping to finish it up on Friday.
suppose wrapping it is the big Question really
