Selling on behalf of a friend who recently upgraded to something a little more special, this is based on a pretty nice old Raleigh frame that has been powder coated mid-grey, a few chips, plus some marks from being taped but finish pretty sound, original brass head badge, straight and no dents, relaxed geometry with mudguard eyes f&r (kinda path look). Ovalised down and seat tubes (by design not accident), reasonably light. Single bottle cage mount, but no other leftover braze-ons, only giveaway to conversion are the non-track rear drop-outs (horizontal). Chainline perfect.
51.5mm seat tube C-C, 56mm top tube C-C (hence short stem). English BB.
