a pleasure to ride.

"Do the job tires"

Complications; (Wounds)
Corrosion on frame, but minor, not structual.
Might want look into grease all round, genral lube up.
Axels need replacing at some point, but rides not a problem.
(about £10 for both axels or less depending where from,
plus time for striping them off an setting up again)
Rear wheel isn't true, I haven't touched it, but looks as though is out a fair bit,
could be trued up if wheel put in wheel jig, however I did lube hub bearings.
Front in better order.
Valves aren't properly operational, don't seem accept air? so new tubes due.

Would be minimal work depending, could be a on going project, hours of fun.

*£'s wise hope for all it has cost me which is £85 returned.
If someone gives me the pleasure of this, that's fair.

Basically it goes, but needs a bit tlc, please don't start tire kick it, or reduce my price it is what it is.
& again basically sad letting it go, as you know as well as myself,
we all love bikes that is reason for being on the forum in first place,
& being born, into this world at this time as well.
Shall say, cannot post no chance, but could drop off somewhere in Central London,
but you're welcome sip herbal tea as well, & draw some spiders.

(Please no silly remarks or cruel comments)
