Rob, It’s true I’m not particularly motivated to see it go. There is something about it that is just timeless and eternally lovely. When I told my family I was selling they all had the same reaction, “What??? NO!” The boys have grown up with this bike in their lives, it’s true. I plan to get

BUMP. Is that what you say? It has been 6 days since a List buyer claimed my Betty Foy and he has yet to provide a shipping address or payment. The deadline has now passed, he’s been notified, and I’m re-listing the bike. There have been zero objections to the bike or the deal, for either party

This is probably not relevant to anybody’s ruminations but... I briefly owned a 58cm Betty with the intent of running it with drop bars. When I was buying it, Keven asked “do you want to wait for the new 55? It has the identical numbers, just with the seat tube 3cm shorter”. I’m a 86cm PBH 5’10
