SOLD: Sid Mottram (Mercian) Mixte singlespeed.

I'm selling this rather pretty metallic green Sid Mottram mixte bike. It's a nice small bike so would suit the more petite rider.

It was made in the 70s or 80s, by Mercian.

I built it up about 7 years ago for my wife but she hardly ever rode it, so the seat, bar tape, tyres, freewheel, chain and brake blocks are barely used.

Seat Tube (ctt): 49.5cm (19.5in)
Top Tube (ctc): 55cm (21.5in)
Seatpost size: 26.6mm

Lyotard 460D aluminium pedals
165mm TA cranks.
I will also supply the special TA crank extractor tool if you remind me when you collect. (TAs are a special French thread)
Weinmann 500 side-pull brakes with Campagnolo pads
SR stem
Brooks bar tape and plugs
A lovely Brooks B17 professional saddle (Skully-stamped with the name 'Toni')
Panaracer Pasela gumwall tyres
Wheels are mismatched but look in keeping - Mavic rims on Campag(rear, 32 spoke) and Shimano(front, 36 spoke) hubs.
It's probably geared around 65 inches.

@bq Nice build that. glws and please mention to the buyer I may be able to alter the saddle if they wish to personalise it for the new owner, I've changed lettering with some success before.

Hope you are well mate.

This is one of those builds that just looks ‘right’.

And SOLD, to NickH.

Enjoy!
