Nice quality bike. I have a Pashley Sovereign 26. The 5 spd gear adjustment is very critical and you must get it right or you'll risk getting missed gear shifts or gears shift by themselves and resulting in gear train damage. Another thing is chain stretch, as you ride more, the chain stretches and for the first two to three months you have to frequently check your sturmey 5 spd adjustment. When chain doesn't stretch anymore, that's the time to tension it. When done, your bike is broken in
