I bought this bike from 'Love Bikes' in Dalston in March of this year for £170. At the time, it had new brakes and cabling.
I took it back one week later because, after pedalling hard, the chain had come off a couple of times. They replaced the spindle and realigned everything - the chain is now dead straight and has not come off since.
I do not commute on this bike, only using it for shopping trips and brief, infrequent journeys around Hackney. Also, it has been kept inside since being bought. As a result of all this, the bike is still in the almost the same condition in which I bought it.
I'm selling because I'm moving to a new city and can't be arsed with taking it with me.
Looking at other forum posts, I think I may have paid over the odds for this, lol. As you can probably guess, I don't know a huge amount about bikes.
Stronglight 46 chainring.
17T Sturmey Archer freewheel.
Looking for £100 ONO.
The bike is situated in Stamford Hill.
