Hi

I have decided to part with my favourite Safety bicycle, due to not having time to use it, with riding the penny's more now!

It is in fair condition, not all shiny, as it is original paint, still showing alot of orriginal pin striping. It has a B83 Brooks Saddle, very comfortable! Wheels are 28 x 11/2, the front needs pumping up, but cant find the pump adaptor, I know it is a good tube as I put it in fairly recently. The brakes stop you, if a little slower than the modern sort! hehe The chrome on the wheels and handles are all fair condition, and may clean up further with polishing!

From the crank to the seat tube it measures 21", I am 6 foot and it is a nicesize for myself.

She still has the orriginal mounting peg on the lefthand side.

The mud guards, handles and a few other bits apear to be newish, or newer than the bike anyway! There is a pump on the frame too, which is suitably aged! Laughing

Anyway here are some pics:-

Note the above and below, odd cranks

Cheers and open to offers. To be collected from South Cheshire
