Re:

So strip and clean all bearings mint , frame perfect inside , and theres no rust anywhere to be seen!
Tyres not perished and brake blocks look as new........left hand shifter has gummed up pawls , so that was fun servicing that....stripped and unseized...all working perfectly now.

Re:

Some pics of this from yesterday's ride, getting (but not abused) used now, can practically feel the relief from every bearing to finally get some love!



 
Re:

To be honest I hadn't touched it until last week when the frame snapped on my towing bike so decided to press this into service. It's a bit of a tank so wasn't expecting a lot but it rides amazingly well and is really comfortable. Just not the fastest thing for climbing. Very pleased!
