Dawes Galaxy

[sidevalve]

Ok bit of a longshot I know - looking for a Dawes Galaxy. Pre aluminium [ie 531] and with index gears [sorry to the purists I couldn't get on with them in my yoof and still hate friction shifters]. Happy to do a bit of fettling.
Bit like the holy grail but worth a try.
Anything ?

Cheers and Thanks for the offer, but I've always found that a complete bike [no matter how manky] is a better starting point in the long run - sort of allows a ride and rebuild as and when.

631 rather than 531. Very slightly sloping top tube. 9 Speed indexed bar end shifters.
I'm in Blackburn if you're interested.

Cheers,
Richard

Again thanks for the offer but I have obtained the holy grail today - quite nearby too.
Once more thanks to all those who offered.
