Selling my bike - read this bit first
Hybrid, medium frame, three years old, two hundred pounds or near offer. The honest part. The frame and wheels are in good order and it has been serviced every spring. The gears skip in the two lowest positions, which a shop quoted me forty pounds to fix, and I have priced it accordingly rather than fixing it and asking more. It is not the bike for you if you live at the top of Falkner Hill, because the gears you would want are exactly the ones that skip. On the flat it is fine. I can meet outside the union any weekday after four. I am not able to post it or deliver it, and I would rather you rode it round the car park before deciding than agreed a price over a message.
