For Sale: Elswick single speed rat bike

19.5" /49cm frame, metallic brown elswick running as a single speed with 26 x1/3/8 wheels. New Michelin World Tour tyres, chrome front rack, dutch wide handlebars, leather Brooks saddle, leather grips, Bit of fun.

£180 PM if interested

not the politest of sellers and well over priced from what I can tell.

I'll give you £50 for it

I see this forum still attracts smartarse twats.

Can't see a donation star against your name; probably doesn't help.

My girlfriend bought a Raleigh equivalent of this bike recently for £20. My personal opinion (which I'm sure you have no interest in) is £80 tops considering the saddle and new tyres.

55 quid. and you'll say 'thank you'

fucking chancer.

...sitting comfortably...

Bit of fun?
Nice!

This is going to be a belter

shit, I asked about saddle in a split...... would've offered 30 and prob paid more.

but since I'm such a smartarse, guess I'll offer that for the lot.

rodabod, thanks for the reminder, donation off on payday....

Reminder was pointed towards the original poster, not you! Looking at their previous posts, they seem to be solely selling stuff here, so seems like a donation wouldn't go amiss from them.

If you sell stuff here, you should be ready for someone to critique your pricing. A lot of stuff here gets sold at "mate's rates" because it's a community forum.

Have you thought about donating? I see this is your 21st For Sale thread...

Yes thanks, I'm doing that right now.

From way back in December 2010

I've got a very similar frame and fork (elswick hopper) if anyone wants it for, say, a donation to the forum?
Got to pick it up tho....

What size is that roughly? I'm looking for something cheap for a pair of 700c wheels I have in the 58cm region.

Cheers,

I'm not sure to be honest.........it's buried in the shed under piles of crap at the mo.......Probably a bit smaller than that, if I recall......

Hah! Well if you do pull it out one day then let me know if it is indeed large.
