For Sale: Dawes Windrush ca. 1960

Posted on
  • I did have an account on here before the resurgence but don't know how to log my old account. So I am user655321 for now.

    This is my grandfathers Dawes Windrush. He bought it new circa 1960 and has ridden it sporadically since then. He has kept it in a garage or shed wehn not being ridden. It's mechanically sound but surface rust can be seen on the handlebars and scratches on the frame. All but the pedals and rear wheel are original.

    There's an integrated dynamo on the front and a bag that plops on the back. The dynamo hasn't been plugged in in a while so I don't know about it's functionality. The bag is original and attaches as it should. Has an odd insertion mode, the bag only opens to a large letterbox size slit coming out the side under the flap.

    I can only find a few sales on the web of them and none have a price listed so I have no idea what to put. Any info there would be used as I have nothing to go by. It's not a shiny bike and would be a project so I shouldn't be expecting much.

    // I'll ask for £200 for now.
    Now asking for £160.
    Please correct me.
