Sold 21.5 Inch Pashley Guvnor Bike.

[PeterPerfect]

This is a restoration Project or ride as is:

21.5 inch Pashley Guv'nor.

Reynolds 531 frame.

Brooks B17 Titanium Saddle. (these are now in excess of £200 for anew one !).

Brooks Leather grips.

Schwalbe Tyres.

MKS pedals.

3 speed version, much better than the single speed.

Brass bell minus the striker (goodness knows where that went !).

Completely original except the seat post which is currently a sleeved one as the original one gave up the ghost.

Ideally the frame needs re-powder coating as it has several areas of peel and light corrosion (pretty standard on these as although they had a nice high gloss finish, the prep was never the best.

Like I say, the frame has no damage and it's completely original minus the seat post and brake cable which needs fettling but the drum operates very well.

Please don't expect a sparking bike, it's a simple restoration for a good amateur.

Cash on collection or Bank Transfer only please from the GL2 area of Gloucester.

These still retail for over £1k !

£250

Curious, could you peel the Guvnor decal off or is it under the top coat?

 

[PeterPerfect]

Mmm. That's a strange question.

Mmm. That's a strange question.

How so?

 

[PeterPerfect]

It feels and looks like it's underneath the top coat, unlike the 531 decal which you could peel off which has a definite edge to it.

Only the second Pashley I've ever owned tbh.

I wonder why they do that ?

Hope this helps.

Thank you, great bike. GLWS

Thank you, great bike. GLWS

Thanks very much.

It's a great project for someone and maybe the perfect opportunity to experiment with a different colour scheme perhaps although gloss black is the cheapest powder coat option.

British racing green gets my vote.

Great minds think alike or all fools stick together. Not too sure if there's much difference .

There is a darker version of BRG that I particularly like but I can't remember the name of it.

Essex Green springs to mind but I may be wrong.

Would look really nice on this type of Roadster me thinks.

It's probably going to end up going for @ £200 so I might as well just ask that for it now !
