This is a Dawes Fireball built in the early 1980s or possibly older from the late 1970s. Like all older Dawes it has the Handbuilt in England logo. The bike has a triple front chain ring and a six speed rear meaning it is capable of ascending any of Brighton's steep slopes. It has been clean and partially renovated with a replacement saddle and new bar tape. It works and is tuned ready to ride. A bit of a collectors item which some might associate with the term Hipster, though do not worry about that as this is a nice bike for riding around, in a London bike shop this would probably go for around £250. The frame size is 24" so suiting 5' 11" to about 6' 3". The money from this sale will go to a local children's bike.
