I wanted one of these for so long , when I got one I was all excited a little bit of wee came out, until I rode it.
You might like it but I didn't

Re:
I have a pair of those tyres, salvaged from a scrap Dawes, they're just great. Big and bouncy for off road, blow 'em up rock hard and they fly on the tarmac too, save them if you can.
Love the bike, shame not much stuff of that era comes up in "weeman" size, had a slightly later Dawes Wildcat in the smallest size they made but it was just too long for me. With that seatpost I don't think I could reach the handlebars on yours!

Re: Re:
I can confirm the tyres are very big n bouncy! I didnt put alot of air in them as they are very dry indeed. As for the ride, I had a blast! apart from the crap brakes and clunky changes

And that fact that the wheels are in two different timezones.
