Very nice 1974 vintage Clubman steel Road Bike. Singlespeed so very simple and effective.
Perfect for a commute or getting around the city on. Nice chrome fork ends and fork crown detail.

NEW bar tape. NEW brake pads. Weinman levers and calipers. NEW quality Dicta freewheel. ITM stem and bars. Large flange hubs, Weinman rims. NEW pedals
Size 59cm. Suit someone between around 5"9/10 to over 6"0.
Frame has the usual scratches and marks but the original paint still looks pretty good. The frame and forks are straight and the wheels true. A very smooth, quick ride....!

Any enquires welcome...

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 >

Mention another user by @username

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

```

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

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
