found locally and picked up this morning on my way to clipstone for a ride with sprog. needs a good strip, clean and fettle but its pleasantly nice. the pannier may get refitted and the bike used for work unless it get sold on later.....but for now :facepalm: another rider in the workshop.

how it was when i got it. saddles not orignal but as far as i can tell, everything else is. tyres, cables, chain etc etc. shame the decals have nerly disappeared.








chained the saddle to something more suited, for now ;) , removed the bar ends, that must have saved 2kg!!, binned the chopped down grips and replaced with some old but full ones and pumped up the tyres. gears felt okay but the seatpost slips a bit. tried a 27.2 and no chance so im presuming the standard 27.0 is just worn or the clamp/qr is pants.


nowt special but i hopes you like
 
Real nice and i'm really loving that colour so is that a 19" or 17" frame as i'm not sure just looking at it ..
