This is a high end hand-made 3-gear ladies' bike which I bought when I was trying to get fit about 5 years ago. I am not a confident cyclist and after a few trips to the shops it just got left locked in a shed. I've realised I will never ride it and reluctantly now putting it up for auction. Gorgeous classic design, has integrated bell, leather seat, kickstand and pump, and very nice front basket. I even have a leather pouch that goes on the back seat for keys and purse, will dig this out and put on ebay shortly.
The basic specs are 26 inch wheels and three speed Sturmey Archer gears. Length with wheel straight is 180cm, width 58cm. Length with wheel turned is 150cm and width 80cm. Frame 22 inches. For further information I recommend the Pashley website, which you should look at for more detail. This model is currently selling new there for £745. For more pics or details, do message.
The bike is for collection from Ealing, West London.

Classic step-over frame design with elegant upright riding position: an
easy to mount/dismount frame with comfortable upright riding position
that allows you a good view of other road users and the scenery, and the
added bonus of encouraging a healthy posture. The frame is hand-built
using 100 year old traditional methods - with tubing hand-brazed into
lugs - for the attention to detail that only a frame crafted by hand can
possess.
