I bought this bike from the forum a year or so ago for my mother.
It was in decent nick when I got it, but I have serviced the brakes, sorted its rear mudguard, stopped it clanking, given it brand new tubes and tyres and a whole lotta love; it was, after all, going to transport my mother around.
It is tiny
Seat tube centre to centre is 49cm.
Top tube, if there were one would be around 52cm
Mum is 5' nothing and apart from the stepover it fitted her well.
Once it was finished, she decided it was a tad too high on the stepover for her to be confident. She is in her seventies and tiny, so fair enough. It was too mixte in shape.
Brakes and gears work well and it is a nice smooth ride on its new rubber
It is not new, and you are unlikely to win races on it but it is a fabulous town bike.
Collection/Viewing in Barnet. £100. I dare say I could ride it into the city if someone wanted it there.
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:
```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
