For Sale: Beater O'Brien bike + old Raleigh frame

Posted on
  • Nice-looking vintage O'Brien Concorde International touring bike now surplus to requirements. 56cm frame, 27 wheels, 10 speed. The paintwork is generally good and the bike can be ridden as is, but it's by no means perfect: there is a slight wobble on the rear wheel; the rear mudguard is cracked; old Emelle saddle; corrosion to the front rim. The frame's decent and new pedals have been put on. £80

    Old Raleigh Magnum frame, forks etc. ( basically full bike minus wheels, seatpost and saddle). It was a five speed and I can dig out the Positron gear bits and chain if required. Frame 57cm. £50

  • Does the raleigh frame take 700c wheels, and is it possibly a reynolds 531?

  • I'll check, but more likely something to be something like cro-moly than 501, as the Magnum wasn't top of the range back then. There's a fair bit of clearance and I've had vintage 26s and a single speed 700 set on it, altho I think the original wheels were 27s.

  • Gone. Thread closed.
