Good looking bso, makes it a survivor, did that make it worthy of saving?
Probably.
The steel rims should scrub up, the hubs might not have collapsed, and most of the gearing is basic shimano, so functional.

They are laughing with you.
There are people here with u-brakes and flexstems, Thumbies and 130mm stems!
They are AWFUL guys,I used to sell them when I worked there.I'm utterly amazed they havent all disintegrated into a pile of rust by now.

Like most Apollo bikes then? These triple triangle Apollos were way before I started started working for that company and been with them for 16 years, bought a couple of bikes from there too, but that's another story. I do remember them being sold at Halfords when I worked at a DIY store in Leamington Spa (Tachbrook Park retail park). But I did end up buying a number of GT's from Broadribbs Cycles in L/Spa !They are AWFUL guys,I used to sell them when I worked there.I'm utterly amazed they havent all disintegrated into a pile of rust by now.

Far superior to these naff Apollo bikes.
