This is the one that was on Ebay last week... I was hoping it might have it's Suntour gear intact and would be worth restoring.
As it's a bit of a bits, I'm going to flip it for the price I paid plus a little for the fuel and time, I used getting it. I've also fettled it so it's rideable.
The Good bits...
It rides.
The seat post is not stuck.
All the bolts are unseized in the frame
The frame is straight with no dents
It still has the original dog collar and seat clamp which must be worth £20..
The bad bits...
Plenty of surface rust on the frame... although nothing that would affect the integrity
The cheapish RST fork tops out with a noticeable clunk
Wheels need truing.
Other than that it's a good honest winter bike (or project if you are feeling particularly mad/brave).
Price is £60 plus shipping of £15.
Collected Price is £55.
I'll run it here for a couple of days and then pop it back on Ebay.
