    Anyone interested in buying a Kronan? I know someone who is selling one at a good price. I think he would take £80 for it. sorry for the rubbish photo but it's the best I could muster...

    I've always quite liked these bikes but must block the N+1 voices in my head this time...... PM me if you're interested and I'll put you in touch with the owner.

    Very nice. However as I have just recently given in to N+1 (details later) there is now absolutely no more space for another bike. Indeed I may have to lose one or two to make room...

    @crowriver sounds like a big bike! Is it the pedal hotdog stand that Chdot linked to on ebay?!

    Nah. It's (or rather they're) not here yet. If/when that happens, I shall report. Probably jinxing the whole transport thing by even mentioning it...

    Looks like a nice bike and a steal, as it has a front dynamo, rack and rear rocket launcher for tail happy car drivers! Not sure I like the reg plate, would stop the power breaking the speed limits and running red lights, cos of course all car drivers never do that as they have a reg place with which they can be traced.

    I think that's a front drum brake, not a dynamo.* Rear probably coaster brake. The hubs are worth that on their own...

    I also note on the rear stays the clamps for a Bobike Junior folding child seat (I know as I have one). That's the first one I've spotted in these parts (apart from mine). Looks like a clamp for a front stem child seat too.

    *-indeed I believe you can see the bottom of a bottle dynamo just peeking through the front wheel rim from the other side.

    yeah I used to have the bobike junior as well.... not this one though. This bike has emigrated from the Netherlands.

    Hey, I would be interested in buying the bike if its still for sale? I have a blue men's kronan and I love it! Can you let you friend know I'm interested and perhaps suggest putting us in touch. I'd be happy to drive up from Manchester as I have a van I can put it in.

    Thanks, Martin
