Free: Campingaz 907 gas bottle (Patcham BN1) Gifted Campingaz 907 gas bottle surplus to requirements!

Free: Men's Bike (restoration project!) (Patcham BN1) Gifted Men's Bike (restoration project!). A much-loved and well ridden Boardman Team Hybrid from (I think) 2009, frame size Large (I'm 5'11" and it was fine for me). It was a very good bike in its day. It's been stored in a shed for 3 years since I replaced it with a newer Boardman hybrid! It's high mileage, got all the usual dinks in the paint, and the hydraulic disc brakes are seized - they're Shimano Deore and were fairly recently replaced before I stopped riding it - they probably just need stripping down, cleaning and refilling. Well, the whole bike needs a strip down, clean, new grease etc, but at the end of the day you'll have a good bike. Right now it's unrideable and the wheels don't even go round, but it's not rusty. If you've read this far and still want it, please let me know when you can collect, and ideally include a phone number.
