Chris Paulson Tandem - £75

Hi All,

For sale is a late 80s/ early 90s Chris Paulson, marathon frame with 531 tubing. The saddles remain the san marco rolls that I purchased it with.

I no longer have the space for it and in reality, probably won't have need for it until my daughter's another 10 years older!

I purchased the frame from here 5 years ago for £350 but after the below "modifications/ updates" believe £75 to be a fair price. My partner and I don't drive, so this has been a bit our way around for weekends out of london and day trips.

Since purchased:

1. the rear wheel is now 700cc and not the 27inch that it came with and
   as per the front - in turn this means that the rear rim brake can
   not wholly be replied upon, we use the SJS drum brake even though
   it's meant to be just a retardation force,

2. I've changed the friction shifters to sti-type (?) which will
   require indexing,

3. there is a dent in the top tube from being dropped by a bike
   mechanic when completing the above indexing (!) - I have been
   informed by a separate bike shop that the dent shouldn't drastically
   affect the structural integrity but take that as you wish...

It's set up to ridden by a leggy 6'2 pilot and a 5'2 stoker.

Due to its size, this will be for sale, for collection only. I'm in SE London.

Dibs please. PM incoming.

No worries - for the benefit of the thread, this will be sold with no pedals.

OOOohh second dibs please!

Oh, damn, I would have had this like a shot. On the remote chance a meteorite wipes out everybody else who's dibs'ed this, can I has a distant third (or however many) dibs?
