Built from the very best scaffold pole, its comes with seven, yes seven working gears!

It has wheels, two of them, and handlebars. And a saddle too.

It has super grippy tyres that go really fast! So fast in fact, on its test ride today it totally owned a granny on a mobility scooter 😯

More importantly, its so shite it might not get nicked from outside asda when it takes me shopping 🙂

That's what I like. A nice honest post. No BS and no chance of you getting completely spit roasted by some of the unfriendlier members of the forum (Although I'm not holding my breath). I certainly Like it.

Enjoy it

Indeed. That's what we all need. A utility bike of some sort. Cheap, unassuming and practical.
10/10 on that one. But it does need mudguards. 😉

Do you have to have planning permission for it ?

And look what it's horns have done to the fence already.

Nice. Just the job for doing jobs. Mudguards will be your friends (my experience) as would a pannier rack and some really cheap panniers left permanently on it for quick errands.

Whats the trailer looks like the same connection system as our follow me.

In answer to the questions posted....

That fence is where I wash my bikes!
And... mudguards would be nice, however having invested my life savings of bugger all in this beauty, I am not sure how much more I could manage! Anyway, its summer!

If you would like to donate me some mudguards, bring them to www.bigbikebash.co.uk and you might win a pint 🙂

Oh, and the trailer is a bit like this!
