nice bike dude

Nice bike, out of interest what parts are on that?

Stem?
Brakes?

[Cashy]

I did have a quick look at the bike last night but didn't look at the stem. The brake are Dia comp in black, the ones with the MX (?) circle on them. The lever are something else though.

Any looking to loose the cranks so I can get some Redline double pinch I think.

Will update park when I get it next week.

This used to be John Terry's bike I believe....

[fouronethreeoh!]

Keep the cranks, way more sought after than twin pinch redlines. Although they are early to mid 80s shimano dx, not mid school.
My guess is you would have plenty of offers for them from guys on here.

Personally i'd drop the seat a bit, get some cyclecraft stickers and its job done, tasty old school cruiser.

I'd love to, but that may be a few years off, once my daughter can ride... Thanks though. Is it pink??

No it's blue, but needs stripping and painting. I done it in Gulf colours blue and orange. Yours for £40. I'm going Andover tomorrow and was about to put it in the for sale section.
