Title: What have i just found?
Post by: johnny bluff on September 22, 2012, 08:13 AM

just a quick few words on how i purchased this...
 last week some lad who i worked with told me he had his old bike in his dads garage from about 15 years ago,so i asked if he could send me a pic of the bike,and if he wants to sell,to just let me know and we may be able to sort something out,so a few days later he came back with a pic of a bit of a shabby looking thing,however it looked ok,so a price was agreed(which i will come to shortly)..and i walked and picked the bike up....after getting home,and having a good look im sure it maybe a good find...i spoke to a fellow radster(thanks jamz :daumenhoch:) and was told what it may be...would love to know exactly if poss what it could be...hopefully not a bad find for 15 quid... :daumenhoch:
thanks for looking,and any feedback would be great...jb

Seems to be the same as mine - 501 or 601 (don't know what the difference is - maybe parts ?)
