Have you seen this fella? Seems to do full services on old nags - including full freewheel refurbs where I suspect most people would just junk them. I'm guessing the only way to make that kind of activity pay is through grabbing YT subs.

Yeah, I kind of like that flutter/ wobble (though I never saw it in 'drive' / forward motion of the freewheel, only freewheeling. I accept its probably not doing anything for efficiency. I would hate to have to work on cheap ebikes - just as plasticine as a cheap bike but more complexity and...

I know jack all about ebikes. I wonder if there is a tech reason for screw ons or is it just like kids bikes - that they can get away with it and save a few $s per unit.

The search for decent freewheels - the challenge facing every remaining screw on rider. OEM Shimano freewheels are as you point out going to have gearing firmly on the macho side with corn on the cob gaps. They considered a 21T largest sprocket a concession! Regina and the like...theres going to...

Another vote for Halfords. Either a kids bike box or get an larger box and cut it down.

Looks like a proper cyclocross frame - top routed cables and no bosses for water bottles, bottom bracket looks high. Gear shifter from a flat barred bike and looks to be thrown on to make it function with gears. No bar ends suggests bar end shifters were there before. Its potentially a cheap way...

Another vote for two tone.

Manx Norton I think?

Jesus Mary and Jospeh and the wee donkeys....what is it with people finding Rene Herse and Roberts and the like down the tip? A fricking Raleigh Eclipse is the best I ever got 😂😂😂 Incredible find...I kind of want to know how much you paid but also don't, IYKWIM..

A great write up and a situation that will strike a chord with many here. Personally if you can't find someone in the fam or close by who would appreciate riding this then the charity route has the ring of whats right. Its still a great looking bike and has many many miles ahead of it.

Genesis clearly got the message. The multitude of CdF models seems to be plugging many holes.

Interesting blurb from the seller. Says a lot about them and their morals but not so much about the rider who passed it on to him...does he mean Fignon? Why be so coy? If you filled the tubes with cocaine then its worth 10K.

The message in this vid seems to be "I've been ill and work got on top of me, sorry to my customers....but anyway I've decided to write a book." How about trying to clear your backlog before writing the book? I would be pretty fricking frustrated if he had my frame or money (or both) and saw...

A Hurlow in my size would be my personal holy grail.

" And you'll always find him in the kitchen at parties...".

£21 hammer on the Shogun and a tenner on the Geoffrey Butler!

Super low to no use by the looks. Possibly brought over by un immigré rosbif?
