This was a painful journey for both Cheryl and us as we had accidentally sold off one complete bike that she had her eye on and had told us to reserve it for her which was not captured by our system.

The shortage of supply for frames during Covid has not helped our case further and Cheryl had earlier fancied the grey.

She was in the market for a leisure commuter as well as a bike to do grocery shopping with. After a retro look and standing at a height of 155cm thereabouts, the options were a little limited and we were happy to did this up with mostly Velo Orange parts for her.

The end result was a very satisfying bike to ride around on pavement or tarmac and equally aesthetically pleasing!
