Subject: Dawes Twocan kiddieback tandem
A local bike shop has had a Dawes Twocan kiddie back tandem for sale for
sometime (as in at least a couple of month).He had it earlier for 500 quid plus, though said I could have it for GBP500) Noticed today that he has it for gBP 400. Wanting to get rid of it guess before the winter. Looks tempting, as I'd like to keep DD1 - now 9 months, in the trailer, I don't know a great deal about tandems, obviously this is the bottom And much as I could like one, spending lots on a more upmarket one isn't anyone got/had one of them? any comments, or any other comments from You must Sign in before you can post messages.

Get it. You won't regret it at all. I did the cheapskate thing and
built one which was absolutely a brillaint move. For local utility trips the kids prefer it to the car. I just have to stop the middle one from shouting 'loser' at all his friends as they walk past with their parents. At 400 gbp it is good value and a bargain to be had.. Oh, and in case you missed the point, Buy it. Now! ..d You must Sign in before you can post messages.

Wanting to get rid of it guess before the winter. absolutely perfect for kids - you can have a proper grown-up bike ride (i.e. as far as a reasonable pub) without Tiny becoming exhausted. Best of all, for things like school transport, they are much safer The Toucan is well thought-of, it's not a bad bike at all.

So swift transaction was done and now we have another bike :-) (or will have when he delivers it to me next week) He has had it in stock since the beginning of the summer it seems so I guess he was glad to be shot of it. Didn't want to drop the price anymore, unsurprisingly, but did throw in and will fit for me some SKS mudguards, so I was happy with that (forgot to say about toe clips though) We can't really afford it right now, still recovering for the house Exciting stuff, it's ages since I got new bike You must Sign in before you can post messages.
