What bikes have you owned that have covered the most miles and required the least maintenance apart from the usual wear and tear?
Dawes ClansmanA raleigh medale i bought in 1983.It only gets used once a week in the spring/summer now
Same here, though some wear and tear quicker than others.Most of my bikes have only required maintenance for the 'usual wear and tear'!
Ive been donated two of those, one a drop bar and the other a flat bar version. Both were almost completely original and still going strong some 30 years later. I fettled them and paased them on via freegle or similar.A raleigh medale i bought in 1983.It only gets used once a week in the spring/summer now
Orange P7.... i think it's 20 this year. still got the original bars, grips, brake levers & gears* (bar the rear d.) and seatpost but the seat, wheels and crankset have been upgraded, nicked or replaced a number of times.
