I picked this up for my step son, but he’s unlikely to grow into it for another two years at least, and has announced he would prefer a drop bar racer so rather than faff around trying to adapt this to his desires I am going to see what interest there is. Gears and brakes are all working perfectly, I think the bottom bracket may need replacing though. Bargain buy for child or lady after a quality touring bike - sizing wise it is ok for me at 5ft4 but wouldn’t work for anyone taller
£150 collected Hackney.
41cm seat tube, and I believe 3x8 Deore but will double check full measurements and specs and add asap

- Brooks saddle got nicked, replaced with an old suede-y iscaselle

Few more bits added to the table of parts - mainly freecycle - some straps, an old saddle/bar bag, pile of inner tubes (pretty sure these all have a puncture but 100% usable with patches - all 700c apart from one 16”), carradice bagman support strut adaptors (possibly also can be used on some rack supports? Dm for more info on any of this stuff

Hi, sure yeah send through some photos, although I’m afraid size wise it may be too big though, as I’m really looking at 24” wheeled bikes - he is 8 and not very tall, still currently riding a 20” wheeled bike right now, I think 26” wheeled bike will probably be too big for at least another year
