Original Purchase Price 775
Note from seller:
I have loved my cycling adventures with this beautiful bike over the last 3 years, and would recommend her to anyone looking for leisurely cycles. The only reason I am selling her is to get a bike that has more sporting capabilities and I will be very sad to see her go. She has been well-looked after, but would recommend taking her for a service for some extra TLC as she has been resting for some time so the gears may need oiling. To this day she has never let me down, with no issues with brakes, and tyres and hope I can find her a home that will enjoy her timeless style and pazazz!
Collection Only. Isleworth or Beaconsfield
