Pashley Prospero
Pashley Prospero
The Prospero is an agile and dependable machine that is ready to guide you through any Tempestuous times the metropolitan landscape can produce.
Choose between the confidence inspiring flat bar, the more relaxed swept-back bar or the ultra-versatile drop handlebar.
Created for agility and versatility, the Prospero is built around the proven Reynolds 531 steel tubing that is hand-brazed to create a beautiful yet purposeful frame that balances performance and comfort.
True versatility comes from the Pashley Porteur front rack, hand-crafted in Pashley’s Stratford-upon-Avon factory.
High-volume 27.5" tyres on tubeless ready rims glide over rougher terrain whilst powerful hydraulic disc brakes allow you to stay in complete control. Silver finishing kit, Brooks Swift leather saddle, and a Sugino chainset complete the classic aesthetic.
