For Sale: Vintage Raleigh Restoration/Conversion

Hello All

Some of you may have seen this bike on the Tweed Run. I had it on Ebay but it didn't get the interest I thought it deserved. However, rather than stick it away in storage (I'm moving abroad), I would rather know it is being ridden and enjoyed this summer and hope it would be appreciated by someone on here.

Spec is as follows:-

Frame - 1953 Raleigh Superbe
Rims - Velocity Deep Vs (R40/F32)
Hubs - Maillord
(All built by the very accomplished Mr Dogs Balls)
Saddle - Brooks B17 (Skully has expressed keen interest to get his knife stuck into this as it's in very good nick)
BB/Chainring/Cranks - NOS Raleigh
Pedals - Kyokuto 'Top-Run' pedals with Christophe clips and brown leather straps
Bars - Nitto Randonneur bars with elk hide covers and Diatech Dirty Harry lever
Front Brake - Shimano 105

Size wise would suit someone around 5'8" to 6".

Make me an offer.

Cheers

i remember seeing this on the tweed run,,,i thought it was a charming mix of old and new

wow thats nice... go on give us a rough gide price

Make me an offer.

I'll give you two biegel's....sorry I mean bagel's!

In all seriousness what's your ball park figure out of interest?

ok, given it cost me almost 500 to complete this project but I recognise I won't ever get that for it, I was hoping for around 300

Although the bagels so sound very tempting

sounds a good deal to me. if only i had the dosh...

Oh so tempting... I don't really have the money, but if it's here later, I might have to...

It's very nice...i hope someone on here snaps it up!
