I started to collect and build for Retro Ronde and Eroica, but now I have the Merckx I've got to have a clearout. First up is a lovely Batavus Criterium made from Ishawata 025 tubing. Entry level 1970s/80s racer.
Its tatty with plenty of scratches and some rust spots on the chrome. The tyres are perished and the spokes corroded. However the hubs and rims are sound so a rebuild will keep it looking original.
Here's the spec:
It was originally supplied by Nijhoft of Vorthuizen.
Lovely ride and would make a really good project. It could look very ....... well it could!
I'm in Milton Keynes and you're welcome to come and look, but can send extra photos. Can bring to London as I'm about a couple of days a week otherwise post at cost.
Looking for £95. PM and cash please.
Got more pictures so email me if you want more.
