Bakerlite bike shop

 

Bakerlite sells Pashley bikes

and it is a lovely little haven of steel.

lots of tasty frames in sensible and serviceable colour schemes

like black,

and Sturmey Archer hubs.

and 28 inch wheels

and fat white Schwalbe tyres.

older than old school.

Steve the proprietor is a lovely chap

who

like all good bike shop owners, 

is happy to gasbag about bike related 

nonsense.

for those of you who don't know them

Pashley bikes are made in Stratford upon Avon and 

have built the same frame designs for the last 80+ years.

if you love path racers

the Pashley Guv'nor is probably the closest thing you're going to get

without going bush and trawling through a bazillion farm sheds.
