It is a beautiful bike to look at and a delight to ride and it has given so many happy memories. I am very sad to sell it but want it to be enjoyed again
Comes with a bespoke Mirit tandem roof rack - same design as adopted by Helton tanden carriers - very easy to load.
As seen it has been used for touring so relatively lightly used - a couple of weeks for 10 summers.
TA Specialitiesd triple chainset with gears down to 1:1
Shimano derailleurs
Mostly original with a hub rear brake and caltilever brakes, downtude shifters.
Has a Blackburn aluminum rack.
The wheels are true have Atom hubs, never had a spoke breakage
I have improved it slightly since the photos were taken and it has a parking brake with a bar end shifter rather that the dual brake lever. I changed the handlebars and added a modern stem. I have the original brakelevers, bars and quill stem if you wanted to revert to the full 1980 look.
Happy to sell the 1980s Karrimor Iberian panniers.
