Nope. Whoever put them on originally cut the stays to short. so they haven't any room to adjust.
she also want's them off so off they will be.

She's only done one ride so far. And its not as if she'll be putting in the miles as the bikes is for short hops to the shops and light pooling.

My partners new summer cycling hat for the Pashley

It should keep naughty motorists at a decent distance

 

[ianrauk]

A few more modifications.
Off with the mudguards.
Off with the pannier rack
A wicker basket and flowers
New fat white tyres.

With the mudguards and rack off, it now has a feel of a US cruiser about it, like a Schwinn or something. No bad thing, it's nice just in a different way.

Even prettier! Are they decathlon tyres?

So. After playing with Rachel's Pashley. I looked online to find one to buy.checked on Ebay and found one local. 2 hours later I picked this up. A Pashley Parabike.

Bought during the first lockdown last year. Only ever ridden once. Its immaculate. Still has the labels attached.
Got for a bargainous £500. Normal price £750.
We now have his and hers Pashley's.

I do like that. Complements your wife’s Pashley nicely without being an absolute match.

Yep, going for the cruiser look of which she wanted and likes.
