Hi, I’d like this please if you’re local (Cheshire)

Thanks

I'm a trendy consumer. Just look at my stupid phone.

[marcycle]

Location, yes, a good point. I am adding the Loughborough postcode, which is unfortunately not very local for you.

[manc68]

Ah ok, good luck with the sale looks a great bike

[marcycle]

Yes. It's a bike I feel more secure on e.g.in snow than my mountain bike. And good to know someone approves the price too, which is hard to determine. Thanks

Just a point re the tyres you can get good quality solids in that size so you could have puncture free riding as well .

What size range do you reckon it would fit ?

[marcycle]

Didn't know that.
Do you mean what size rider? I am 5ft 9in and fits me fine. Seat post would go up a bit more.
