Heres my new ride as i done my last outing on 20" at Peckham. My mate owns
a bikeshop and ordered this by mistake and couldnt sell it so after a bit of
old fashioned bartering we came to the amicable agreement of 200 notes
so i am well happy, rode it to work and all the kids are like why have you
bought a mountain bike Kev, no gears no suspension no disc brakes kids
today.

Nice Bike Kev, very similar to my GT cruiser. Mine was the Halfords special they were selling off cheap earlier in the year.

All that for £160

Hey Zippy, This bike started out the same as yours until I changed a few parts to give it a slightly vintage look!! ;D
