Pegoretti – Now Stripped!

Peg2

Ok ok, just one last ad and then I’ll shut up until the new year… So I’ve now stripped the Pegoretti back to just the frame, forks & headset so that anything else that’s on it isn’t clouding any decisions. £1750. If you’re interested and want to talk (or come and see it) just drop … Read more
