Does any one know anything about this model of bike ? There's one for sale
on eBay that I believe will make a good project fixed bike. The description
says 25" wheels and the seller confirmed this as correct. (He is also
selling another bike with 25" wheels). Do we think he is correct ? I have
not seen 25" wheels before, though I have not really looked very hard TBH

He doesn't know what he's talking about. Yes, it would be a decent base for
a fixed. Do you know anybody in Cambridge then?

cheers,

Fraid I don't know anyone in Cambridge but if its cheap enough I would be
prepared to bid sight unseen, visit him and withhold my money if it is not
as described. I don't mind a drive to Cambridge, the wife likes visiting the
bookshops there.
