VINTAGE BIKE ROBIN HOOD BICYCLE MADE IN ENGLAND RARE - $150 (san jose east)

THIS OLD 3 SPEED BIKE CAME FROM NOTTINGHAM ENGLAND AND IS BELIEVED TO BE FROM THE 60'S ERA MAYBE EVEN OLDER. IT HAS 20 INCH X 1 3/8 INCH TIRES. IT HAS A ROBIN HOOD EMBLEM ON THE FRONT.

Has the original paint job. Has a little rust but it is condition. The gears work and tires and tubes are ready for use. Received a tune up 2 years ago but has only been ridden a few times.

Has a small frame suitable for a woman that's 5" to 5"5'

I recently bought this on Ebay for £6
Its a cresswell Fold-it, has hub brakes and 3 speed hub gears. All it needed was a new saddle, longer seat post, new tyres and a £0.95 part for the rear hub. If I didn't like the bike so much, I could relist the hubs alone and make a sizable profit

Trek Transport Cargo Bike with 2 bags - $850 (saratoga)


I reviewed this cargo bike here and ended up buying it.
https://reviews.mtbr.com/trek-transpo...go-bike-review

Ony issue is we only use it once a month since there's so many other bikes in the house. So it's time to let it go to a better home.

It can carry the dog in front, two kids in the back. Or with the bags, carry 4 grocery bag in the cargo backs. It can carry 200 lbs in the back. This is a car replacement bike.

It handles really well since it's low to the ground and it's got a lightweight aluminum frame. Price is $1400 with one bag and the extra bag is $150. So price on this package is $1550.

The $850 price is a good deal since this is in great shape and you're just not going to find this kind of bike used.
