Picked up this lovely Dawes on the weekend. Previous owner had it for 50 years, has taken good care of it + not used it a whole lot. He had it repainted 12 years ago the original navy blue colour which looks lovely but has obscured the serial number under the bottom bracket. My first vintage bike and absolutely love it!

Fun fact: His 20st uncle cycled those wheels (with a different frame) from Belvedere in South east London over the alps to the south of France!
