If no takers here, maybe drop it off at the Bike Station? I'm sure they could make good use of it. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4936#post-52234 Sun, 08 Jan 2012 18:16:36 +0000 Uberuce 52234@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Chain's a bit slack... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=4936#post-52229 Sun, 08 Jan 2012 17:05:23 +0000 Nelly 52229@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7023/6659976683_5b15903f52.jpg"></p> <p>Out and about today, spotted this raleigh steel frame effort languishing in Lauriston Gardens (next to all the recycling bins, back entrance to St Thomas school/Chapel).</p> <p>Its longer wheelbase than my SS, otherwise I might have considered it, but I reckon its approx 53cm BB-top of seat tube.</p> <p>Soul cycles has one similar (popped in for a look, nice guy on duty) but with the old style friction gear shifters on down tube. </p>
