Nice tandem project here

looks like a swb Claud Butler

I can never understand why a seller doesn't make the asking price clear to see !! But a nice looking tandem.

I'm not sure if this will appeal to anyone, but worth a tenner?

For some reason the seller has put it on a one day listing. He has a few others but this is the one that took my eye. I'm unable to drive at the moment due to illness (or cycle for that matter) so I'll have to pass.

Worth a punt. Its only down the road from me, although I suspect its in one of the villages around Dunstable as it seems to be at a stable.

Deffo worth a punt it was listed last week at £100 but no bids

This didn't sell at £40 but seems good value, with a £35 b-i-n: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Raleigh-Touriste-Ladies-Bike/293103422394

And yes, swmbo would suit it. But would probably kill me for suggesting a road bike for her.

I'm annoyed. I put in the start price and was outbid, so I meant to go back with a higher bid later... but I fell asleep and missed the end of the auction!

Not all bad news though. I picked up the Falcon for .99p! The Peugeot didn't gte a bid (£5 start) so I've just messaged the seller to say I'll have that one as well if they like.

 

[Kempstonian]

lol... he says he might have found a home for the Peugeot but 'we can talk about it when I get there'

I'll find out tomorrow

To my untrained eyes this Peugeot is gorgeous!

Well I went and collected my 99p Falcon this morning and came back with the Peugeot as well

Here's a few pics I took. The Falcon:

The Peugeot:

As you can see the Peugeot has odd cranks and the paintwork (a nice metallic pale mint green) has some strange black marks. I'm wondering if the previous owner, the seller's late uncle, might have used some rust treatment or something? Anyway the frame doesn't have any bad rust but there is a lot of degunking to be done! It looks to be a 23" and so is the Falcon. Just about maximum size for me!

I'll put more details later on another thread, once I start sorting these two bikes out. I won't tell you the price but suffice to say Dick Turpin would have been proud of me! Haha <---- (nearest I could get to a bandit emoji!)

A lovely bike except for the saddle which has seen better days.

Is that some sort of Rattray / Flying Scott (apologies for the spelling)
