A Yellow Land rover edition Moulton APB (All Purpose Bicycle) designed by Dr. Alex Moulton, and hand built under Moulton patents by Pashley.
One size and unisex, for on and off road use, full suspension (front and rear), agile and quickly separable triangulated space frame. Ideal size to put in train, boat, or plane or into most car boots. Serrated cable joints enable the frame to be quickly separated.
The bike on sale here has been used only three times in twelve years, and is in a near mint condition. There are a few paint marks over bracket and on cross beam but no dents. The Frame is straight and true, no dents etc and has never been crashed.
The bike features an unusual 21 speeds arrangement of a single chain ring at the front and a 7 speed rear cassette coupled to a 3 speed hub gear. These are quite rare bikes and will only go up in value. Stored indoors.
Will meet within a 40 mile radius, the Bike can be viewed by contacting me on 07796 987 134 or 01249 464 325. I would prefer not to post but if needs must the postage is indicated.
My most recent auction was ended early by the seller (me) as my paypal email address was incorrect - my own paypal account was comprimised a few weeks back and money was taken by fraudsters. This has now been resolved and the money returned to my paypal account. This means that the bike now has a new paypal account.
Questions for all of you who emailed me in the past week:-
1 Will you post it to Japan/US/Worldwide?
Yes I will post the bike world wide in a custom made reinforced cardboard box. Bike Photos from auction will be on CDROM. The bike's saddle has been replaced with a brand new saddle worth £30, included in the box.
2 Will the bike fold into a suit case?
Yes most probably, but a large suitcase. Extra photos were taken tonight (Sunday) to show the bike separated, as individual items as well as on top of each other.
3 What is the bike's reserve price?
It is £795. I have sold two (2) other Moulton APBs in the past few months, them reaching prices of £900 APB5 and £795 RX8, so it is justified considering its brand new condition. I paid far more for the bike when new.
4 What does the bike look like separated?
Please see new photos taken tonight.
5 Who packs the bike for shipment?
I do with the utmost care and attention. The bike's box is a £24 custom made box that has the usual packing material, and bubble wrap around all the main bike components. The bike is separated, its saddle removed, both wheels removed from the frame, the handlebar stem removed from the bike but cables attached, all separating cables split, tyres deflated and all bike items packed in bubblewrap, and positioned in box to ensure that there is no rubbing nor damage in transit. If I recieved a bike in the post I would expect to receive it as specified in the description, so I am careful with packaging. Foam and other packaging may be used to further soften the transit. The custom box may take a few days to be manufactured, I currently don't have one.
6 How much is Shipping to Germany?
I will find this out, due to the weight the bike will have to be split into two parcels.
7 How much does the bike weigh?
The bike weighs 16 Kg, with the front section of the bike weighing 7 Kg and the rear section weighing 9 Kg (approximate)
The box weight with the bike, packing and the box itself comes to 18 Kg. I am being completely honest here.
