Hi,

I have a Magneet Cambridge and I was wondering if there is a market for such a bicycle. It is a dutch style bicycle with 27 x 1,25 wheels (Weinmann rims and Shimano front hub), Weinmann brakes, 3-speed Sturmy Archer and a Brooks saddle. The bike is from 1978 and was one of the top models of Batavus in those times.

Here is a picture:

I am wondering if I the bike has a value and that there are true admirers for those kind of bicycles.

Thanks, Paul

I'm surprised you've had no comments thus far. Check out the thread 'Bring back the Eng 3 speed'. Looks like a fine bike to me, not too many of those here in the US. May I request close up pictures? We LOVE pictures of shiney things! :)
