Does anyone have any information about the Dawes Sterling? I'ce seen one on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&sspagename=ADME%3AL%3ARTQ%3AUK%3A1&viewitem=&item=200098097053&rd=1) for cheap, but I can't find much about the model at all, on google or on here. I don't know how reliable that particular one looks - the gear system looks slightly worn... does anyone have one of these? Is it at all comparable to the Galaxy?
Thanks,
James

No the Sterling cannot be compared to the benchmark Galaxy as it is a much cheaper machine with lower grade components. I doubt it would be worth the hassle.
