Hi Sorry didn't see these posts thought this got lost in all the other threads.
I still have it but it is listed somewhere else but um no bids ah hem.. I can still cancel it if anyone is really interested, welcome to have a look over the weekend just pm me .
Hi Laura, yep it should be fine for you, the top tube is 55 cm my GF is about 5'8" and it's ok for her. It did have a rack on it but it was so rusty and thin I took it off.
Yeah the chain is on the first gear so that's why it's at that angle but it rides fine.
I did try a singles speed freewheel on there but the chain line was so bad I decided to put gears back on.
You would need to put a track hub/wheel on the back for it to work well.
Geared wheels are built at a slight offset to allow for the cogs etc.
