x2 Aende Bikes to sell

[Dave C]

I have two Aende bikes that I had made in the mid 1980's. One is tourer and the other a road bike. Both are more or or less complete as the day I got them. They're in good condition having been stored away for years in a shed.

Having been off the bike for 'oh too many years' I've bought a modern one to make my return to two wheels. Wonderful though the Aendes are I think it would be nicer to let someone else enjoy them. However, I know nothing of the retro bike scene and would be grateful for any advice on the best way to sell them.

Hi. Welcome

Best way would be to post a few pics and brief details in the how much section and take it from there.

Pongo's bikes tend to generate quite a bit f interest

Post some pictures and sizes, I'd love to see them.

I've always wanted an Aende! My ideal frame size is 23.5 inch's so first dibs if you have one at this size...lol

Just my 2p worth and I guess Ian Raleigh will not be best pleased but IMHO keep them unless you are desperate for money........

I bought a Modern carbon / Alu Basso 2012 to get out and about on but have kept the remnants of my old bikes to tinker with. I'm about to go in the garage and remove the Pista headset from my Falcon San-Remo.

Last night I removed the Campag cranks after 40 years and stood and stared at what I put together when I was a teenager..........Priceless

Midlife, I like the sentiments but my problem is less about money and more about space!

I hope to get some photos up of the bikes later today.

I've owned many bikes over the years and sold some on which didn't mean much too me,
I have a Raleigh Panasonic which I built up around 1985/6 and for me this tired old Raleigh
means the world to me and would never sell it on, so I indeed know what you mean...Priceless.

pics would be good

Photos of both bikes added. As suggested I've posted them in the 'how much section'. Thanks

Hi Dave,

If you have an idea of how much you're asking for the Aende road bike for by now, let me know, I'd be definitely interested. Looks like a medium'ish sized frame, perhaps 22" or close.
