I've got a Raleigh Pioneer going cheap, 12 speed, fully functioning, standard pioneer blue paintwork is very good, no rust at all.
Front wheel recent(ish) alloy, rear chromed which is a bit patchy/flaking in places. Wheels not out by huge amounts and clear the pads fine without them been a mile away from the rim..
SR double chainset with guard (pedals included just not shown in photo), smooth bottom bracket with no play/grinding, gel saddle is very good. Basic push pull gear levers work fine (right is indexed) as do mechs & freewheel however the latter are quite grubby. Rack also included.
Was my mums bike (1 of 2 jalopies she had...lol) but I bought her something new & shiny for mothers day.
£35 collected with £10 for a next day courier or I can pop down the A1 to meet at High Barnet tube station for the same amount.

Thanks - do you know what the frame size is?
Am ideally looking for something that is 531

18", frame isn't anything special, however even with the heavy hybrid tyres & chunky wheels it comes in at 14kg. Actual frame weight compared to the standard single butted 531/501 frames isn't much different probably around 500g-700g. The 531C lady frames are lighter still but those are rare as rocking horse poop.
You might want to specify a budget and adjust your title to narrow offers to your wants a bit more ;o) -

Did the op buy this? I may be interested in just the frame if you still want a sale. Let me know cheers, Dan
Wotcher - I am after a complete ladies bike (geared) for my other half.
She is 5"6" and would prefer a step through frame but that is not essential.
I'm ideally looking for something with 531 tubing but to be honest I'll consider anything that would help her enjoy lengthy cycles into the countryside.
My budget is about £70 -£90 for a frame set or £200 for a complete bike
Can collect from the londonish area but do not have the time to travel much further afield at the moment so am happy to pay for postage.
