Hi
I have decided to go down the bikepacking route for more off-road fun, so my trusty Dawes Super Galaxy is up for sale to help fund this. It's old and covered in marks all over, but still works great and has never let me down in all weathers. I have never even had a puncture! I *think* it's from 1991, but I'm not 100%. It's a green / turquoise colour which seems to change its hue in different light. The seat tube is 57cm and the top tube is 56cm. I'm around 5'10", and there's plenty of scope to adjust for people taller or shorter than me. I had it fully serviced last year, including a new handbuilt rear wheel. It weighs 13.6kg with the rack, pedals, mudguards etc, so not bad for a touring bike!
Here's a rundown of its features:
Reynolds 531 tubes and forks
XT hubs
48 / 38/ 28 triple Stronglight chainset
12 - 32 7 speed cassette with Deore rear derailleur
Zefal Classic leather bottle holders x 2 (bought new last year)
Charge Spoon saddle (bought new last year)
Tortec Expedition rear rack (bought new last year)
Conti Top Touring 700c x 32 tyres (never had a puncture- even on gravel!)
Shimano M324 SPD pedals (also bought new last year)
I am based in Crowborough, East Sussex and work in Tunbridge Wells, so either can work for pick up
