Vintage Raleigh Singlespeed Racing Bike
Very nice 1980's Raleigh Explorer Road bike in bright metallic red in exceptional condition - hardly a mark!
Simple, quick and light (steel framed). Single speed so low maintenance. Runs perfectly. Loads of new parts -
New Tyres and inner tubes. Alloy wheels.
New Freewheel. New Track chain.
New Brake cable inner and outers. New brake pads.
Shimano 600 brake Levers and Calipers. New handlebar tape.
Super smooth crank and headset. Good saddle.
Frame is size 58cm
