...so I tore apart my 9 year-old granddaughters too small pink 6-speed, and re-painted it for my 6 year-old grandson to inherit.
It's actually a pretty decent bike, that cleaned up and operates quite well.

If you’re desperate for work I have a few bottom brackets, hubs and headsets that need overhaul, some frames waxed and brake calipers changed and a set of fenders added.
