For Sale: 62cm Raleigh classic 531 tourer

Beautiful Raleigh touring bike. Maroon and chrome, paint is excellent, a few small marks but nothing serious, all the chrome is in excellent shape. It could do with new tires as the old ones are pretty old., new bar tape/foam and possibly the brakes adjusting although they seem perfectly fine. The brooks saddle is fairly worn. 62cm frame. I've seen these go for up to 250, and with an hours work this bike could easily be worth that as it's in such good condition, but I'd be happy with 180 for it. Collection from Stratford e15 please!

If I squint, the rims look like Weinmann Concave.
Are they 27 inch or 700?

^ Same Q here. Might be interested for a friend.

I think they are 27" but will confirm tomorrow.

Dibs if you don't mind courtesy of matthew, I'd like to know about the 27/700 also but can come by tomorrow if you have time.
*shoot, I won a bike on ebay before I had my morning tea, not sure what I was thinking about... thanks a lot for the reply, I'm sure one of the other peeps will pick it up, its a beautifully classic tourer.

Defo 27" wheels!

Sorry to hijack your thread Dazaa
Great tourer I have one of these almost identical ,but I have slightly bend forks anyone have any suitable replacements ?

Was after 700c, but thanks for checking.

would you split the frame?

Any idea of the model and year? Interesting that it has a triple chainset. I own something similar with a double that is frankly a bit brutal for touring.

It's a "classic" from the 80's I think. At least the sticker on the frame says so, and google says its from the 80's.

Here you go, it's a Classic 15 from 1984. Very nice, the specs are here. Full 1984 catalogue here.
