F/S Raleigh Works Titanium Time Trial frame

For sale is a Raleigh Time trial special frame specially made for competition trialing immaculate in every way and very cool ride indeed £550

Ti meant Team Issue, not Titanium.

Then I guess it's way overpriced too?

... dimensions?

It's not overpriced its a Team issue and its a piece of british history from the 1970s
There's one in Holland for sale for £1200!

I think TI actually stands for Tube Investments, which was Raleigh's parent company. Hence the TI Raleigh team. It's a nice frame though, an Ilkeston special. Presumably the tube material is on the sticker on the seat tube? GLWS.

EDIT: whatever

Bit harsh. Assuming it's 753 (as a team issue) then £400+ is fair.

Title is misleading. Needs changing. Or deleting and reposting. LFGSS is usually better than this.

Right! My bad. Don't know how much these Ti frames usually go for

Definitely a Reynolds frame. The TI sticker is also on my Carlton (but that's not a Reynolds frame, albeit it rides beautifully [every bike has its own purpose I guess]) and yes it means Tube Investments and they made tubes for frames but not as light as Reynolds.

What's the serial? I'm 99% certain it'll be 753. Knock £100 off and it's reasonably priced.
Retrobike might give it (and you) more love, tbh.

some answers to your questions
yes it is Reynolds 753
top tube centre to centre 57cm
i have no idea to what these go for
as i said i am selling for a friend and he asked a favour
also tried editing and you cant edit title

I suggest posting an ad on retrobike. They're a bit more 'spendy' over there. Close this one before you do or suffer the wrath of the forum police (I'm a PCSO).

cheers done!

Tough crowd over there
I have been asked to sell these by my friend an ex racer who can no longer ride due to ill healthin only trying to get a decent price
Looks like ebay might treat me better

very possible--until the "buyers" refuses the sale cos there is a broken spoke or likewise.

I like the frame btw. Like you, have no idea on its correct price.

I can say that on your Colnago frames you are optimistic on this forum. Suggest you go to the Bay--and even there your prices will not be easy to achieve.

You may need to speak to your friend on his/her pricing expectations

good luck.

Also as stated often here, this is not a forum where you sell to make money. It's where you sell to like-minded people to either recoup your loss or make a small loss (at times even substantial) to get rid of something.
Definitely not to make money.

It's fair to say no one is making money here
My friend has unfortunately been told he will not be able to ride again
He just wants a fair price for things that are no longer made or available
And offer them at a fair price to people who appreciate them

We have decided to put them on eBay and whatever they get they get
Shame that this environment can't or won't buy such beauties

what is the frame number out of interest ?

pretty frame, got any pics of the dropouts?

To be fair, lots of people have been friendly here and retrobike and you've not been willing to move on the price. You would have possibly sold it for around £400. I'm interested to see how it does on eBay, just make sure you've said you'll ship worldwide to help the price.

I hope you get the price you want but I don't see it happening, personally.

No...TI=Tube Investments whom were the company St the time that owned Raleigh....Carlton.....Brooks and even Gazelle in NL....but not Team Issue.
