Hi There the height to “stand over” , that is the top of the cross bar / top tube is 79cm and the height to the top of saddle for me is 90cm and my height is 173cm or 5’ 8’’. The only slight defects are some light scuffing on the saddle and the Randonneur “ decal on the right hand side off the top tube has light wear. All components are in good condition and clean but some bolts have a light tarnish eg the bottle bracket bolts. Kind regards Steve and thank you for your interest.

Hi, looks lovely. Any chance you can measure the top tube please? I’m 5’10” so not sure if this is a little too small. Thanks!

Thanks, that’s helpful. It’s a little on the small side for me. Good luck with the sale.
