A very nice Raleigh 531 C Luxe frameset . Built in 1987 at the Raleigh lightweight products division , these were only available as frames ,not complete bikes ,not to be confused with the massed produced stuff , this is a true hand built frame.
Measurements;
seat tube centre to top 62cm ( 24.5")
top tube C-C 57.5cm
rear width 126 mm (7 speed)
Being the 'Luxe' model this frame has a top spec;
531C main tubes with 531 Pro fork blades and back stays
Cinelli cast bottom bracket shell
Bocama cast seat lug and fork crown
All braze on's , including chain retaining pip and double bottle bosses.
Gipemme forks ends with adjusters
Includes Shimano headset
This frame was professionally refinished in 1991, but has seen little use since then , a few marks , but no rust , absolutely no dents or dings and is dead straight .
Frame has been professionally prepared , all threads have been chased , the BB shell has been faced , the seat tube and steerer have both been honed.
honest description , fair price as well
£129 collected from London NW9 or £139 ( pay pal ) posted
