Wanted: Touring Bike / Light Tourer

Posted on
  • Looking for a complete cheap touring bike to go cycling on this summer. Ideally hoping to pick up something for around £350. Vintage Dawes Galaxy/Audax would be great.

    I'm 6 foot 2 so a 59cm/60cm sized frame would work

  • I have a cheap fort ROT 7005 f&f that can take racks and muddies if that'd be of any use? Cheers. Tom

  • F&F here could be a good place to start

  • This one is complete but £500. Build sounds spot on though.

  • Damn^ he's so right. ctc forum delivers. Don't even question spending more than you hoped.

  • Nice bike but not so great for touring with panniers, no braze ons mate!

  • Thanks for the suggestions everyone, really appreciated. Hamrack - great suggestions, exactly what I'm thinking of but 62cm is probably a bit of a stretch for me.

  • Probably a bit of a stretch, yes. Real shame as that's areally nicely specced machine and a bit of a bargain!

  • Got a large disc fairdale Weekender. SRAM 10 speed, spyres etc. It's up in Manchester though. Got rear mounts for a rack + guards etc no front mounts.
