• Saxon lightweight made in the late 30s, not too big (around a 54/55cm) with 4-speed Sturmey gears (FW hub), North End bars (I think), 26x1 1/4 rims. It has the original Brooks Champion saddle - a bit worn, but intact - Pelissier Special caliper at the front, Formos caliper at rear. Unfortunately, it was given a new coat of silver paint in the early 50s and as the photos show, it's now a bit untidy. It probably wouldn't be too difficult to respray properly. I haven't got round to sorting it out properly - rust on chrome etc, bit of corrosion on the bars, front brake needs pads - but it rides really, really well. It does need a bit of work, but it's a nice, original vintage bike. I'm looking for £90 for it. Not averse to splitting it if needs must.

    Let me know if anyone's interested in the vintage blue men's racer (Saxon, gents', 56cm) that's also shown via the link.
