For Sale: Raleigh 531 MTB

Posted on
  • This comes out of the parental garage and is a bit obscure but I thought I'd see if anyone on here wanted it before it heads to ebay.

    A good quality and well used MTB with a frame best described as 'industrial' - neat lugs, thick pantoed stays and mudguard (and rack) mounts. It's quite light considering but a bit tatty these days. It might make a good cheap commuter for somebody.

    I did some touring on it ten years ago but it hasn't seen any use since then, and will need new cables, chain and break pads. Other than that everything works. It's got a few mismatched newer components detailed below.

    Raleigh 'Thunder Road' [!] 531 frame.
    56cm centre-centre toptube
    50cm centre-top downtube

    Suntour XCE/X-Press Accushift plus
    Dia-Compe XCE V-brakes
    One Rigida Lazer 400/Suntour wheel
    One newer Gipiemme wheel
    New-ish Sram 5.0 rear mech
    Semi-slick tyres in decent condition

    £75. The bike is in the Midlands and the price includes postage. If you'd like to collect please get in touch and you can have it cheaper.
