Greetings, Norris and CR ---
The sad thing to me about this wonderful Evans Londres machine is that it had been PREVIOUSLY LISTED as a COMPLETE BIKE at least once, a few weeks ago on UK ebay, and nobody bought it. Now, because of that, it's being parted out.
I had it on my "watch" list---but, it not being in my size, hadn't followed the auction closely and it ended the day before Christmas Eve, when I was on the road.
The original auction contains detailed info about the bike's specifications: 400092221806
