For Sale: Raleigh Twenty, for sale.

Posted on
  • Too many project bikes and this one has to go. My ladyfriends seemingly limitless patience and garage space, actualy does have a limit after all!

    This one looks completely original, except the rear tyre which is no longer a whitewall. The frame number indicates that it's a 1975 model.

    It has a Sturmey Archer 3 speed grip shift and a dynohub with lights. White Brooks saddle and looks to have all of its Raleigh branded bolts. An even has the the original white plastic tray (not pictured), that sits on top of the chrome rear rack.

    As seen in the photos there is some pitting on the chrome. The rear tube doesn't hold air for any length of time. An the brake cables are very sticky and could do with being replaced, or maybe just lubing an tweeking?

    I have ridden it but because of the rear tube and cables I'm selling it as a project bike.
    SOLD

    I also have a pair of 48 spoke alloy BMX wheels with black tyres, if you're looking to hot rod it? Although I've not seen if these can be massaged into fit yet, and are not included in the price. But may be of interest?

  • Collection from where?

  • Depending what day or time, either my or my ladyfriends home in Bromley (BR1) or Chislehurst (BR7). An to make to make it even easier, could possibly meet at Bromley South station which is 15mins from Victoria. Or Elmstead Woods station which is same'ish again from London Bridge I believe?

  • dibs

  • Dammit, that's a bit far from Manchester! :(

  • 2nd dibs on behalf of a friend. Messaging her now.

  • Just replied to Fratis kind offer of dibs and his PM. An to confirm, yes you can still get Innertubes and the brake cables are pretty standard things.
    But really need the space, so ideally looking for someone who can collect it prior to a couple of weekends away. So I've undibs'ed it on his behalf.

    Really prefer not to have dibs, unless you can collect in a reasonable amount of time and you aren't looking to "make me an offer". Sound fair?..
