We've got a Pashley Postie Bike here. Bought off here last year which has been tiding me over while I did some work on my other cargo bike.
I've been pleasantly surprised with the carrying capabilities of this thing. I've been using it to carry tools around and had some heavy loads in it. Even a set of folding ladders a couple times and it handled it all well. So much so I haven't been in a rush to get my other bike sorted.
I'm 6ft and it's a little on the small side but I've regularly cycled 45 minute journeys without discomfort. I changed the stem to a adjustable one to help my height. If you were intent on keeping it a longer seat post would help a lot.
I think the wheels are comparatively new to the frame and the tyres are pretty new. Gears all work well and I have just regreased the rear hub as the bearing cage had broken and was making a noise but that's now sorted. I'll clean the chain before selling.
This is great for local journeys and popping to the shops. It has the great advantage over most other cargo bikes in that you don't need to worry about it being knicked.
I live in Bethnal green and can meet anywhere around here.
Hi @benana - you still selling this or is it gone?

Formatting Help
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
