Details

Hand built in England circa 1973 this unique bike is very clean and appears to be all original with the exception of the newer Kenda tires. This bike features 26" chrome wheels, a Sturmey Archer 3 speed hub, step through top tube for easy mounting and full steel fenders with matching decoration.
BIKE CONDITION
The bike is nearly as it would have been right off the showroom floor in the 70s. The slate paint job is still in good shape with only minor wear, surface corrosion and scratches typical for a bike of this age. The bike is free of major bends and cracks however there are a few small dents on the fenders.
This bike has been tuned and fully overhauled right down to re-greasing and packing of the bearings (hubs, bottom bracket and headset) by a shop mechanic with many years of experience. Then the bike given a thorough eighty three point inspection by the owner. Finally the owner rides the bicycle in every gear checking steering, braking, and shifting. After you receive this bicycle minimal adjustments and assembly will be needed to be ready to ride.
This bike is sold as-is. Please see photographs for details.
