No. Most average stock bikes today are 26 lbs. Even entry level. While this bike sure looks cool and is nostalgic. You’ll be at a disadvantage for almost everything. Unless your from the UK and using 60 pounds in terms of cost. Then yes. By the bike.

The DBs I rode in the 90s were this heavy. Mike Dominguez. Wow. This takes me back. Thank you

It’s going to take a lot of work to get it back to tip top. I wouldn’t buy it. Definitely more work than it’s worth.

£60 quid is alright, needs a new chain, budget for new grips as well and get some chrome polish to sort the frame out a bit

Looks like a decent bike, needs some love but otherwise looks very rideable
