Haben & Okubit visit Fawcett

Haben & Okubit

CC Hackney members and avid sports cyclists Haben & Okubit visited Fawcett bike club for the first time yesterday evening. Haben was happy to take care of an unwanted city bike that had been left hanging there for ages. It's a useful A to B ride for him now that he'll be using for getting to and from collage, social visits and shopping.
Cycles and cycling are steeped in Eritrean culture, the people from there are appreciative and knowledgeable about bikes. Okubit helped Haben sort out the headset, brakes and saddle due to the need of replacement gear changer (It's stuck in top gear for now) but next week he is coming back to set up the Sturmey Archer 3spd gear system.

UPDATE - one week later & Haben's town bike is in gear(s) x3
