A 52cm Dawes Galaxy AL (aluminium) triple - with 3 x 8 Shimano Claris gearing and Dawes wheels.
Features are:
I bought the bike from DC Lane, of this parish and the bike has been great. However, the state of the roads and the general ability of scooter riders around here, the bike that I now use for commuting has hydraulic discs and will stop on a tanner, although it was worth it's weight in gold when I worked on this side of Norwich and didn't have to deal with the numpties. I have taken the Galaxy on a couple of 50m plus rides and it has been marvellous. I am moving house to a smaller property so having a bit of a fleet downsize. The Galaxy currently shows my white ladies saddle on there but I will swap that out for the saddle that was on when I bought it, unless someone is desperate for a slightly worn ladies saddle.
Asking £150, which is a fair price, I think.
Bike is in Norwich but I can get over to West Norfolk with it if required.
