My work collegue has a Pashley Princess Soveriegn with gear problems. Needs a repairer in the Perth WA area. Must have knowledge of this bike or its like. Sturmey Archer 5 speed hub gears and hub brakes.
Others have had a go at fixing the bike but still having problems. Gears change is all over the shop.
This is a serious piece of British engineering. A flat tyre is a days work. No joke.
If you have experience or know of anyone please let us know.
Cheers
um this bike looks like way too uch trouble if it takes a day for a flat tyre?

It's a long shot, but you could give these guys a call detailing your problem, they build bikes and are pretty knowledgeable so may be able to help, I have used them before with good results.

I'm with you dude. Anything more than 5 minutes is too slow in my book...
I found internal gear expertise at both Elite Racing Cycles Beaufort St Perth and Glen Parker Cycles Nedlands last week. 😎
Thanks.
I thought gclark8 might be lurking about - cheers will give them a call.
Also a thanks to spiderJ - will try your suggestion.
Sorry to see Mezzinator and Jeytown wus out - I'm included. One look at this tank and I'd set to work with a gas axe. Mixed results guarranteed!

If it turns out uneconomical to repair, then, there is always this: http://www.triwa.org.au/bb/viewtopic.php?t=65 :eek:
We have a photo of Helen Bonham Carter (actress) riding the pashley. Most defintley a ladies bike. This is Mary Poppins territory. Best of British!
Thankfully my (female) friend is waiting for the new SUBLIME 2.0 to be released.
Hurry up Avanti, hurry up!
Wants the Pashey fixed rather than being put aside and neglected.

I believe the correct phrase is "my LADY friend".
Emily Howard would kill for this bike. Because she is a LADY and it is a LADIES bike you know!
