ELLIS BRIGGS
Commuter bike that I've got in almost new condition 4 years ago is for sale. The last owner argued that it's made of Reynolds 531. Though, what I am 100% sure about is that it has Campagnolo drop outs. The bike rides/functions very well. It's been my commuter bike in London and one of the best qualities of it is the fact that I haven't experienced any attempts of getting it stolen.
CONDITION
There are many scratches and some superficial rust here and there on the frameset. No structural damage or dents, just some cosmetic wear.
The bike overall is in very good condition, it technically works well and is a joy to ride.
Wheels are in very good condition. They're ~1000km old as well as the tyres.
Cassette and chain are 600km old.
Mudguards are ratty, but works.
The chain makes noises when on a smallest 11t cog - it was like this from when I put the drive train and it was all new. All the rest of the gears are crisp and smooth.
