Friend of Mrs marshmella is downsizing from a large bungalow with garage to a smallish flat without garage. Says would your husband want a couple of bikes before they get put out for the scrapman. So i nip round this morning to take a look, one is an Argos special and wrecked but the other looks ok but bit scruffy. I bring both home stick the Argos on the front for scrap and set about fettling the other. Both tyres flat but not punctured, chain needs a clean and lube, hydraulic disc brakes good. Had to give it a good wash as someone had painted the garage but not bothered covering it up so splodges of emulsion over it. Took for quick spin and rides really well. Stuck a couple of bar ends on which i had in my spares box.it's come up ok though SWMBO says i can't keep another bike, shame really as it would make a cracking towpath bike.
