    Reluctant sale of my incredible gravel bike. She's been on many adventures in Scotland, Yorkshire, Cornwall, South coast.. But sadly I will be between houses soon and just can't justify keeping her.

    She is super reliable and a great ride.

    Size Medium

    Hydrolic Disk Brakes (SRAM)

    SRAM Apex shifters super smooth 1 x 11 gearing Mavic Aksium wheelset

    Carbon forks

    bottle cage holder on the stem

    any size cargo cage on the frame (Blackburn - very handy for large Nalgene water bottles etc)

    Koda seat

    Hutchinson Touareg tyres - I had a puncture on the rear and couldn't fix it on the road so that wheel has an inner tube in. The front is still tubeless.

    Some scratches, scuffs from the lock and bike packing bags throughout. Also some scuffing to bar tape on ends. See photos.

    Has always had service and been very well looked after. Always stored inside.

    Collection from North London N17 or can cycle her over to you in Hackney or Walthamstow. Test drive is always a good idea. Message if you need more info or have any questions.

    £1350 ONO

    Selling my beloved trusty Peugeot vintage road bike form 1987.

    I've had this bike for over 7 years now but recently bought a gravel bike to go on longer weekend trips as well as commuting and sadly don't have time to use both.

    Specs:

    Frame size 54cm (just over 21inches) this is equivalent to Medium frames
    Steel Frame Reynolds 501 cromalloy - m 3 tubes reinforces Made in France ** some rust, scratches and signs of wear (please study the photos)
    Carboline 103 Fork
    New square taper bottom bracket fitted about a year ago
    New brake callipers Tektro R359 front and rear
    Double brake levers Weinmann (drop and flat)
    Ambrosio 700c clincher wheel set
    1 x 5 gear block ** x5 times better than single speed and no faff with double chain right at the front
    Vintage Turbo suede seat ** note the split however the seat shape and comfort is not affected
    SKS mudguards (front and rear with a light)
    Panarecer Pasela tyres 700 x 23 front and rear
    Steel front pizza rack
    Shimano 105 SPD PD - 5700 pedals
    Water bottle holder

    Everything works very well and in fantastic condition, unlike most other vintage bikes that haven't had the parts updated.

    The only thing that might need changing is the handlebar tape. My personal preference is for cotton tapes (and they wear out quite quickly). I decided not to change the tape since the new owner might prefer a different kind.

    The bike is over 30 years old, so don't expect it to be brand new and scratch/rust free. It is probably the best bike for its age out there since it's been very loved and I have taken a very good maintenance and care of it.

    Collection only from London N17. I can potentially cycle it over to you and deliver (Hackney, Walthamstow?) I travel quite a bit to the south coast Eastbourne/ Hastings way — can deliver.

    £300 ONO

    Any questions - ask.
