I might have one, I’ll look tomorrow

Niiice!

Quite often see nice 26” tourers that don’t seem to get picked up on the radar, there’s this George Longstaff: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/george-longstaff.493093/ 23” roberts with 26” wheels...

I reckon this is quite an interesting bike, e-assist front wheel notwithstanding... https://www.ebay.co.uk/

First reasonably decent ride on this bike, getting to know it a little better. Sorted a few annoying bits and bobs. Shortened the chain, tightened the headset, and what I thought was a squeaky saddle, turned out to be loose seatpost bolts - doh! Happy it doesn’t need replacing as the wtb is...

Anyone got a reasonably decent WTB SST saddle they’d let go of? I’m after an all leather version (rather than with Kevlar corners). Chrome or Ti rails - not bothered. Doesn’t need to be perfect, just reasonably good condition as it’s for a rider. Thanks! Oh yes, ideally located in the UK -...

The Swiss Army knife of bikes indeed! Love all the experimentation. I think the first version is my fave, with the ultra short stem and drop bars. I’d be interested to know what those black v-brakes are?

That’s looking really nice, I agree - it’s such an iconic bike from that era, love the fade and bold lettering. Also really like the muddy fox lugs compared to Raleigh etc of that era.

Nice!

Very very cool.

Any good? https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1VsvaS454v/?mibextid=wwXIfr
