• Easy LFGSS crew - perhaps a slightly lame listing by some of your books, but worth a try perhaps?

    I've become acquainted with a neighbour who is in the house clearance game. He's got a good stream of bikes coming through at the current moment and I'm helping them find new homes.

    I'm not a mechanic. Most of these bikes require some light work but I'll be pricing them as to reflect this. By all means correct me if these prices are wrong - I want these out the door to make room for more! My contact is a really nice chap and I'd like to help see him some fair cash for his work, so please be reasonable.

    If you need any measurements/testing doing, please don't hasten to give me a shout.

    Collection will be from Walworth Road, SE17.

    So, first up - we have an ORANGE 'Clockwork' MTB in decent condition! With the wishbone seat stays and some Deore LX components. £40.

    Next, a nice Raleigh Caprice step through with the glorious Liz Peperell floral decor! I had a quick go on this and it rode really nicely. I have to double check the situation with the gears as I've just been told they might be the old type which require a back-pedal to instigate. The tyres are in great shape considering the age, while the wheels show a few signs of surface rust. This bike comes with a little old pannier. £70.

    Also a bit rusty, an Apollo 'Wayfarer' folding bike. Rear brake will need some attention (it's not clinching). Again, the tyres are in decent nick. £30 for a quick sale?

    Lastly, an old Phoenix town bike with an extra top tube. Both of the brake mechanisms aren't currently working, and the thing does also have some surface rust. £40 take-home value for anybody?

    Hopefully more to come soon! Thanks for your time.
