So I've been hankering for a tandem for quite a while now. Something a bit sedate to test the waters with so to speak. I'd really love to go full pelt and get something a bit special but my budget isn't big and until I've tried it out I really don't want to spend too much.
After a few months of browsing my local free ads, fb marketplace and ebay what I think may be the perfect starter tandem popped up 28 miles away for collection only. A lovely retro 70's/80's Le Jeune tandem in a sorry state but with a few saving graces. Tandem TA triple set up, matching Shimano Adamas ax pedals and aa Atom rear drum brake hub. A quick bit of ebay snipery and it was mine for the princely sum of £53.50. I've just picked it up and have plans.
