Posted: 15:09 - 08 Dec 2021 Post subject: Ebay's most majestic bike.. |
|
|
As an antidote to the other other thread of a similar name I bring you the most majestic bike. Would-be, could-be bargains, genuine barn finds, original machaines with contemporary upgrades that sing classic cool...
I start you with this poorly listed mis-named CX.. Current bid price 99p

I like that; I'd give it a good service and a clean and ride as is, although this picture does give rise to a question:

How does it stop? Is there an anchor in the top box for the rider to throw over the side when a set of traffic lights hoves into view? |
