    *not sure how this is verified - what I was told when I bought it

    Pedals are not included - I can probably sort you out with a pair of flatties from the shed. I'm also hanging on to the brackets for the lights.

    Things you need to know
    The wheels need a tiny bit of truing. They rotate freely, but it's possible to see a vey small wobble on the rear when it turns.
    The headset needs a tweak. No movement when static and moved backwards and forwards with the front brake on, but a small judder when braking lightly at speed.
    The chain needs replacing. It's a stretched 3/32, but it's best if the new owner does this in combination with a new gear ratio or fixed gear.

    All said, it's a great bike that's served me well for 6 years. It's in Kentish Town during the day and Wimbledon in the evenings. Viewings/questions welcome. Pick up only.

    £190
