Pashley Provence ladies' bike


PaulR

Recommended Posts

Mrs R has had this bike for a couple of years for local pottering but now has a new lighter bike. This Pashley Provence is therefore looking for a new home.


It's a sturdy steel machine with a 5 speed internal hub gear and hub brakes, so very low maintenance - all I've had to do is a slight tweak of the gear cable tension and pumping up the giant tyres. It's had very little wear and tear - just a few superficial scrapes resulting from an overcrowded shed.The mudguards are all metal and have survived far better than any standard plastic ones would have done, and the paintwork all over has a lovely rich burgundy lustre. Full working order.


Ideal for a short commute or as a utility bike.


The effective top tube length is 54cm and the seat tube is 47cm. It's set up for a 5'7" rider as shown. The saddle shown here is actually not included as it has been transferred to the new bike. I can supply a basic wide but slightly scruffy saddle or, for a bit extra, a lovely Brooks B 17 leather saddle in gorgeous honey colour with hammered copper rivets.

    • Thanks very much for that.   I think the better informed we are, the better our discussions will be. The article contained: "That arrest had quite an impact on the [phone theft] numbers for the following month,” said Green.  Here's another indicator, admittedly a piece of police PR,  of how well-targeted police efforts, mostly invisible to us,  can when successful  seriously affect offending figures: https://news.met.police.uk/news/met-police-drive-down-theft-and-robbery-by-84-percent-in-battersea-and-nine-elms-500495.  
    • Another excellent article from Jim Waterson's London Centric reporting https://www.londoncentric.media/p/kitchen-foil-and-algerian-markets?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email Interesting that there seem to be favoured and repeated routes for phone snatching for particular thieves.  Seems ED might be one of them ☹️
    • Anywhere near the Overground/Windrush due to its excellent transport links.  You will get larger place in SE23 for example that will give you enough spare cash for private school if that's what you really want but states schools generally good, reflecting the demographic  Easy to get to the bustling streets of East Dulwich but in ten years see what happens to Forest Hill centre.  The whole of the area is full of green spaces. Access to East Croydon for days out in the South Coast
