For Sale: Moulton APB - 'All Purpose Bicycle'

hi all.

my dads decided to sell his moulton as its been sitting in the shed for the best part of 10 years, so i thought id put it up on here and see if theres any interest.
It is a separable frame, braking into two parts with just the use of an allen key. the frameset is in good condition, however the blue plastic coating on top of the paint has chipped in a few places, as have the decals in some places.
Unfortunately the seatpost is stuck in the frame, ive had a go at it with some WD40 and molegrips but havent been able to move it. although hopefully a bike shop with a vice could twist it out. (the molegrips actually scratched up the clamp area of the seatpost a little, but is only cosmetic). also the front tyre has perished slightly on the sidewalls, but it holds air fine.
also included is rear light, and front dynamo light

£700 ONO & will post within the UK at buyers expense. collection/viewing in Brixton

Nice bike but £700 with stuck seatpost.?

Top of the range Moultons are like 16k. It's a cachet brand. Architects like them. Suck it up.

(Moulton very nice company to deal with)

Cheapest new are not so expensive - 1200 quid ?
What tubing is this ?

I think the tubing would be 531 on that age Moulton.

*edit* ^yeah thats what i thought

doesnt say what tubing it is on the frame, however i've seen mentioned on a few webpages that these pashley-built moulton APBs use 531 tubing (at least for the seat and headtube)

hmm, interested. If you were open to trades what sort of thing would you want to trade for? I have a couple of bikes I don't need

I have found a Land rover apb yellow 21 speed rear hub great shape owner died found in shed
checked it out aired it up and wow what a bike I can see what the hype is about . Widow wants to sell looking for $1700 Palo alto California stored bike .greatgradeset@gmail.com

The owner was found dead in a shed?

He died in a shed, despite being in great shape?

This has got to be grave digging

Whatever killed him didn't leave any punctuation marks.

I'd like to put an APB out on a missing individual; Male, land rover yellow, last seen in or around his shed.

This is a bottom end Moulton. Worth £750-800 in perfect condition. I've had 3 Moultons a TSR, APB and an AM18. The APB is by far the worst until they got to the fx18 model (then nearly on par with early TSR).
