Frame 1: Raleigh Gran Sport, c. 1982, 531c tubing, 23inches. This was second in the Raleigh range as far as I remember, beautiful bike built up with all Campagnolo Gran Sport. The drive side stay got damaged after a fall, resulting in paint scratching and the loss of the dropout. A damn shame, but easily rectifiable with someone local who does this (dropout is Vitus) - should be around the £30 mark. The rest of the frame is fine and even lovely, though the chroming on the forks is a bit scrappy. But this would be a great frame to get back up and running, it just had a bit of bad luck and would be a damn shame to have to trash it.Includes ropey headset. **FREE **
Frame 2: unknown Raleigh frame, 23inches aka "The Clapham Slapper", certainly 531 or better as 27.0 seat tube, last year this took me to Cambridge with lfgss and took me all over London until one night the seat post binder bolt barrel snapped as I hit a pot hole.. I filed it down ready for repair as I loved riding it but since then the frame has been in a cupboard waiting - and now I have to admit I just haven't got the time or space anymore. Includes BB. FREE
