with a heavy heart I have to let this go, needing to own a single retro bike I ended up with 3 in the space of a few weeks, and simply have to whittle back down to one.
I could not believe the condition of this beauty when I picked it up, it honestly looks like its been ridden around the block once or twice then garaged for 21 years.
The paint is fresh and bright, the tyres are unworn, the components still tight and wear & tear free. The rims look like they've never seen a brake pad! It may well be the best condition bike of this era that i'm ever likely to come across, but needs must..
The only changes from new are the grips and saddle, but I have a set of period correct new porcipaws that I will chuck in if asking price is paid.
Only marks worth mentioning are several very minor paint chips (2 just visible on top tube pic) which should touch in easily, and the paint on the fork hasn't held up brilliantly over the years and shows some pitting along most of its length, but really doesn't detract from its original look.
Collection far preferred from surrey/M25 Jct11, paypal gift or cash please.
NOS Onza pedals not included.
£155 as is.
£130 without Flite saddle (alternative saddle swapped in).
Seems a bargain to me for what is essentially a nearly new off road capable bike with a big dollop of retro cool.
