For Sale: 1949 ladies Raleigh Sports

I have this beautiful, all original 1949 Raleigh Sports in full working order, ready to ride. It needs a new gear cable, which I can provide fitted to it, or if you want to keep it 100% original I will leave it as is.

Beautifully made, and very stately; eminently suitable for a girl who likes to wear nice clothes. Rod brakes, with a built in dynohub on the 3 speed back wheel, so you have working lights without needing to remember your batteries. Terry sprung oilcloth saddle. 20" frame. Lovely.

This is not a very good photo, but the bike is in much nicer condition than almost all of the other ones you'll find on Ebay. I want £85 for it, including postage. Make an offer if you like, and if you make me laugh I might say yes, you never know.

hey ill take it for my flatmate. whats the bike in the background? maybe his and hers(actually no i dont really like her that much)

cheers

God, that was quick! Did I sell it for too little?

PM for you. (;

Oh yeah, the bike in the background was given to Cyclemagic, a bike charity in Liecester. It was made in 1933, so a museum piece!

hey im sorry shes being tight now so going to have to pull. soo sorry. if no one else wants it she might go 60. cheers again.

It's not nice to say you want something and then not follow through; it puts off genuine people. Never mind though.

is the bike still available? would love to restore one for my girl. sent ya a pm

can't send pms due to status.. anyways, i'm from Singapore, so would you ship the bike down here?

Awesome. My mum had one of these - in 1949! Rode all over England on it. I'd get it for her if she lived somewhere flatter.

Chris, if it's not gone I'll 100% have it for £75 and depends on where you are I'll pick up, please let me know either way
