    Gravel Bike Genesis

    That's awesome. Thanks for sharing. I think Trackers were born in the 1940's when kids built cycle speedway tracks on bomb sites and raced around. I built a Tracker when I was a kid.

    Dawes Galaxy

    Thats a bargain. Id strip it down fully and replace everything required, hopefully just bearings, cables etc and rebuild it as original as possible. Try and source an original rear wheel. Good luck and enjoy.
