Hi everyone. Looking for a Dawes Kingpin (folder or standard). Don't mind a complete bike or frame only as it's only the frame I want. Seller must be prepared to post as I'm too out of the way to make collection feasible. Thanks BSoH

I bought this a week ago or so and collected it today: a 1977 purple 20" 3 speed shopping bike. All original and intact, although the 3 speed hub needs a bit of work to shift properly. It's got new tyres so has had some work recently. Also there's quite a few scratches that'll need paint. Well...

I've picked up this late 1970's racer: A quick rub down with an oily rag and it'll be as good as new.:whistle:

listed on the bay of e. I’ll do an off auction deal for CCer’s. Link

About a year ago I bought a Dawes Galaxy Mixte frame from @biggs682 Today I rode home a complete bike! It has some new parts and some vintage bits - I wanted shiny bits! With a lot of help from my friends at the bike shop I built it myself. It's going to need a few adjustments I think & I...

] So I picked this frame up recently,lovely looking paint job, done by Bob Jackson. There are some sticky out bars that I’m assuming are for the brakes. What would be a good type to look out for to suit this lovely frame. They kind of remind me of mountain bike brake holders, is that what...

So the last two tours I've been on I've ridden my first road bike love, my B'twin Triban 3. We've been to Wales and Scotland together, here's a photo of it in the Cairngorms: Ah, happy memories :) In the past 6 months or so there's a new steed in town, my 1984 Dawes Galaxy. Of course, this...

Bought this tandem way back in '88/89, and had fun on it with MBH for several years until kids came along, and time was dedicated to them. They never developed into bike riders unfortunately, and I couldn't sell them so the tandem has languished in a couple of sheds for 20 years. In the meantime...

for those of you who use these bikes what is your honest opinion of them are they better than drop bars and are they reliable and whats the braking like in the wet ive seen a 2012 one with deore gear on thanks

This afternoon I picked up a new bike - described as a "Dawes with no pedal footpieces", a 24" frame and blurred photos. Well ... it wasn't 24"; it's a 22" framed restored bike and probably an early Dawes Galaxy, re-painted in a metallic pinky-red. Frame number MS(?)9269 and a '531 Renovated'...

Want to buy 60cm Galaxy, earlier the better, based in Somerset but willing to travel (a bit )

Honest! I only went in for some loose ball bearings but a week later I went back and bought it.:ohmy: It was the colour and the head badge that did it! The way it caught the light, a purplish blue with light metallic blue bands and a shiny ornate head badge that drew my attention. :smile: Oooh...

this is for sale @£200 The location is Wakefield area I can get a number but pick up only if anyone is interested

My mates Dawes Windrush in the build stage. Will look fantastic when finished.

I was given this frame recently but it’s not a project I want to take on, if any one wants it, it’s free. Collect from near Didcot or pay for postage and it’s yours . 24.5 of your imperial inches.

I've just got in this evening to find on my doorstep a frame and fork of a Dawes Ultra Plus. My neighbour said yesterday that he might bring it round, and so he did. Can't find much about them so far, only one picture has come up on a search. It's never been ridden, the story goes that when he...

I've been offered one (apparently dating from the mid/late '80's) at what I consider to be a real bargain price for a 531 frame, but I'm not very familiar with them and haven't had a ride on one before. I know what a Galaxy rides like (very nicely), but they have 72 degree frame geometry and a...

Evening, some of you may remember me eyeing up and purchasing a bike I spotted on eBay which I asked about in the eBay thread. Anyway, after a few weeks with it, here it is :) Unfortunately it has a dent in the top tube but it's pretty minimal. For £35 I'm pretty happy :) So there's a few...

Something I got last week so was cleaning it up a little but noticed it has a gnotti hub on the front. Both rims are lightweight Dunlops 27 x 1 1/4. Unusual to see 4 cogs on rear wheel but not as a block.

Selling the tandem I bought last year to do the Bishops Castle Tandem Triathlon. The problem is that I really didn't like it! Lol I replaced all the cables with quality new ones and fitted a new rear derailleur as it had the wrong type. I also refurbished the rear drum brake which is controlled...

Just back from picking this very original Dawes Debonair up. Previous owner told me a bit about it is owned from new by his best friend who lent it to him a long time ago unfortunately his best friend was killed in an accident and he became the owner. He told me how he had ridden...

Selling as my daughter has moved on to the next size bike. The bike is unisex. It's in good used condition. It is 16 speed (8×2) and is as standard other than the bar tape! The Dawes Espoir 3000 24'' Wheel Kid's Road Bike is perfect for the budding racer, being equipped with proportioned...
