Bought this Super galaxy today, needs some TLC but pretty good

Always liked those. Nice condition too. It’s on my nice to have list of sensible bikes next to a Moulton or Brompton. Stupidly I just built up a Reilly 600SL instead 😣
 
This seems to be the best fit so far, stem was £5.99 on ebay so I bought 2 :)PS. I swapped the Canti brakes for V brakes which work much better, they cost £7.00 though !!!!! :) Dawes33.jpg
 
Nice bike. That replacement stem is looooong! Did you get mini-vbrakes or get some pull adapters?
Standard V brakes, they work great with the top mounted cyclo X levers, OK with the drop levers but will work better with the ones that Tektro make for V brakes that work really well, they are £25 and are on order, I have them on my other bike, I will then use bar end changers, the stem is 120mm and its fine for me, here it is again......work in progress shop.jpg
