  • Hi,

    I a selling last years winter Project to make way for this years one!
    The bike was originally a a Raleigh Granada from the early 80's ( I have the brochure page scanned if anyone wants it!)

    Basically it has been stripped down, and rebuilt. It has shot blasted and resprayed professionally (the paint was even baked in an oven) in a textured black finish by an professional company run by an ex-Raleigh employee.

    The wheels have had the bearings serviced and then trued.
    It has had the following new bits:-

    • Tyres
    • Rim Tape
    • Axle
    • Brake Levers
    • Brake Pads
    • Brake Cables (Inner and Outer)
    • Chain
    • Bar Tape
    • Single Speed Sprocket
    • Cotter Pins
    • Bottle Cage
    • Rear Spindle
    • Headset
    • Raleigh Badge
    • 531 Decals
    • Seatpost
    • Saddle

    I believe the Chainset is from a Chopper.

    The brakes are Campag from an old Mercian, don't know the spec, can post photos.

    It has only been riden once for 10 miles to make sure nothing was loose and then it has been in the garage.
    No pedals are included ( though might be able to throw a pair in if you want to clean them.

    I am 6ft and it fits me fine.

    Price = £200, that covers the cost of the parts, the respray and the original bike, the rest I did for love!

    I live in Nottingham and would prefer collection
