For Sale: Some cheap beaters for your delight

Posted on
  • All items collected from Bishop's Stortford on the Liverpool St line, 45 mins away from London's famous London......i can drop off at the station if that makes it easier for you or you can pick up from my mancave and talk bikes for a bit with coffee or tea in a metal mug........brown sugar or Manuka honey...what's your poison?? ;o)

    First up, a Ladies BSA 5 speed jobbie, 54cm Centre to top of seat tube......needs 2 small nuts for the brake cable pinch bolt, and you are good to go.......£40

    Next, a BIG Raleigh Medale in a lovely soft gold with a burgandy headtube and seatube bands....It's really very nice looking, but here's the thing......Its 64 C to C on the seat tube and 58cm top tube......Needs a front wheel, and it would go like a big thing.........£40

    Finally, a Porteur style 3 speed Sturmey......Its a 'Mistral', which seems to be a Yugoslavian brand....56cm C to C, It is all there, the tyres might need replacing and it is covered with a thick layer of dust which cleans off ok to leave black paint underneath.....which looks good.
    The brightwork will need work and the frame has some surface rust, but it is all there and with a day's worth of cleaning and shining, I reckon this will come up nice........I'm not sure if the dynamo works, it might just need the connections cleaned, or it might be FUBAR......Anyways, it's £60 as it stands.

    Believe it or not, I would prefer Paypal on these as I am trying to build some funds up in there.......If you dib, you can paypal me and I will hold it for as long as you want, if collection is an issue.......but it's yours ;o)

  • Offers welcome, by the way ...

  • Any chance you can knock a fiver off the ladies? Desperately need a cheap bike and 40 is my limit, so after bolts...!

  • Yep. £35 in my paypal and it's yours.....;0)

  • So tumbles, are you in for the ladies bike?

    I think the big Raleigh is sold

    Price drop on the mistral for continuity to £40..... It's worth that all day long ;0)

  • Yes, ladies please :) pm me deets and i'll send it over!

  • Ladies BSA 5 speed jobbi PM

  • provisional dibs on the Mistral, I am sure my friend will take it, but i will confirm soon

  • Tumbles, I can't pm you as you are in the nursery..... You'll either have to pm me, or make a few more posts!

    Paypal gift, please all ;0)

  • So at the moment it's:

    Ladies.... Tumbles
    Raleigh... Hoffmeister
    Mistral.... Josiah

    But there are 2nd dibs on the Raleigh, so it would be nice to sort it out....

    Cheers!

  • 2nd dibs on the mistral

  • So, zoo0021 , I got you 2nds on the ladies and rac man, I got you 2nds on the mistral.....

  • Any chance the first dibbers could pm me and pay?

    Everyone has gone quiet, and there is a queue forming.......ta!

  • I can't PM you either! Have sent a message via contact us, see if i can get it lifted. Otherwise...?

  • Actually, screw it- mail me deets at uberbic at hotmail dot co dot uk
    Cheers!

  • Thats sent mate......cheers for persevering!!

  • nah dude the twice one is too big thanks anyways

  • We are at;

    Raleigh.........sold
    Ladies..........still awaiting payment from Tumbles
    Mistral.......... Josia has dibs, but I have heard nothing yet........how long is regarded 'fair' to hold dibs before passing them on to the next person?

    If I have heard nothing by lunchtime-ish, I guess the dibs pass on to Rac84.......

  • im back, sorry, PM on its way to confirm and send $
