I have a well-used Islabikes Luath 26 for sale. This is their road/cross bike, with drop bars. Suit a child 9+. £50.
It's an earlier model than on the Islabikes website. It's actually this one: the frame is overall metallic gunmetal grey with blue cross bar and down tube. It's got full mudguards and Schwalbe Marathon tyres.
Since I had it, I've replaced the bar tape, the cables and the brake blocks.
They are £700 new, but this one is not a suspicious bargain for £50: it's a fair price for the condition. I have seen a picture of its previous owner riding it up Mt Ventoux and it has had a lot of miles in its life. The frame is straight and the wheels are true and everything works, but the paint shows the chips and scratches you'd expect. There is beausage wear on the saddle and on the frame from pedalling.
If there is someone in your life "Approx min age 9+, approx min height 148 cm" who would like a drop-barred bike Islabike that you don't need to worry about, then this might be the one for you.
Available for socially-distanced collection from Morningisde. PM me if you're interested.
