• Very very sad to be selling this beauty. But I have an injury and bills coming in.
    so lovely to ride, it trucks over everything and the big smooth tires put a big smile on your face.
    The previous owner made it all the way across Europe and Asia on it!
    Size Large, fits me nice like this at 6ft.

    £500 collection only from Camden. This is a ridiculously good deal and I won't drop the price.
    Pasted below the specs, taken from the previous ad. I think the brake pads could do with a touch of TLC but the rest is all great.
