  • I’m going to be sad to see this beauty go :-(

    Sadly a new and exciting home move means that this classic Dawes Super Galaxy 531 touring tandem has to find some new loving, lucky owners.

    Originally a never ridden “barn-find” that had spent 30 years dormant, we’ve restored it to classic but modern touring setup that not only looks like it’s fit for a true “famous five adventure” … it actually is!

    You’d be hard pressed to find another classic tandem is such good condition from this vintage. It’s fully serviced by Brixton Cycles and ready to roll so we’re looking for £950 ono.

    Lots more pics here!
