Very nice! I have an old suntour skitter on mine, which I love A few years older than your one though.

Haven't put it on yet waiting for a bit of warmer weather to come not sure how to adjust it yet maybe a bit of trial and error

Local bike shop has now told me my 5 speed benelux is in fact a 4 speed which won't work bough tiff ebay as a 5 speed I suppose that's the risk you take the search will now continue for a 5 speed

 

[ChrisEyles]

What a pain! Didn't even know they came in 4 speed. Better luck next time!
