Here's a 58cm Raleigh road frame from the mid to late 80s.
It's nothing special really, but would make a rock solid pub bike, or perhaps a polo if you don't mind the dropouts.
Currently rattle canned with some green paint I had, but there is old scabby Raleigh paint underneath.
It has a truly beautiful rear brake bridge!
Also has internal cable routing in the top tube.
It will easily take fairly fat 700c tyres as the brake drop is quite long.
IIRC it had old weinmann brakes on it when I first acquired it.
It has a tange headset and an unbranded BB.
Both of which I have taken apart and re greased last year.
I think this is the old Raleigh 18-23 Hi Tensile steel.
I'll weigh it if anyone is interested.
Rear wheel spacing is 130mm
Fork spacing is 110mm
Seat tube is 58cm
Top tube is 57cm
Weighs in at a whopping 5.2Kg
I think it was about 9kg when I had it as a fixed conversion.
Price= £30 ONO
Pick up from Manchester.
Would be able to post if necessary, but really would prefer a local sale.
