NOW SOLD

*price drop: Now £165*

1985 Raleigh Competition with near original spec.

The wheels have been swopped to some beaterish Mavics with campagnolo hubs and a some point I switched the Suntour Cyclone Mk II to the long cage version (i still have the short cage which I'm happy to refit).

Seat tube: 61cm (23 1/2") CTC
Top tube: 57cm (22 1/2") CTC
Weight: 10.75 kg as is.
Paint: 7/10. A few chips and a few small not brilliant touch ups.
Chrome: some pitting. There was a small bird splat of chrome loss which I treated and covered with chrome tape so that it's no longer visible. I've included before and after pics in the Google folder: https://photos.app.goo.gl/kZNDyMEjtUwgdLRU7

It's a great bike - very responsive- but is too small for me and has been languishing unused in my dry cellar for too long.

How about £180? Pick up/viewing Clapton E5.

Cheers
Nonowt

Sent this to my friend from work who's after a bike and this seems to be his size. He's interested so potential dibs for him. Will PM now.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
