Dirt Disciple
For sale, my wifes Revolution Country Traveller from Edinburgh Bike Company. We brought this for our trip around NZ but we are switching to 26" wheel bikes for our next trip, so its up for sale. It's not really retro, but more a kind of retro - ish 700c "euro tourer" that would make a good shopping bike, and is also ready for longer trips for a would be tourer on a budget. It is very good load carrier (see our tour journal) that would suit a rider from 5'8" - 6'2"
I'm told this is actually a Dawes Horizon re-badged for EBC.
This bike scored 5 stars in a cycling plus test, and retails new for £499.00. More information here:

PM me if you are interested, but please be patient, as I have to use the local library for internet access (one of the joys of living in a 14 foot caravan!)
