Lovely Ladies Coventry Eagle 531 complete bike (52 cm frame). Bike was bought new in the 1980s by its one previous owner. This lady is now in her 80s and has not used the bike for a couple of years. She is keen to see it go to a good home and be used again. Ideally looking for someone who will appreciate it and, hopefully, keep it and look after it for another 30 years!!
The bike is all original, apart from the tyres which are fairly new Michelin World Tours. It has 5 Simplex gears, controlled from a lever on the handlebar stem. It also has a fully working Sanyo bottom-bracket mounted dynamo. All in good working order and fully cleaned and serviced.

The bike is in Lincoln and don't really want to courier it. Could possibly deliver or meet buyer half-way, for cost of fuel. Looking for £200.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
