I tried to build this up as a single speed commuter but have finally admitted it’s too big for me. Headset and bb run smoothly, 105 crankset also has very light use, I do have the inner ring and will include. Seat and seatpost are just some spare I had lying around, if you don’t want them I won’t be offended.
60cm frame 57.5cm top tube. I’m 5’9” for reference and it is a bit long for me.
Resprayed in ford Orion purple by previous (and first) owner, not a bad job but some drip and missed bits I have tried to show in photos. Frame number indicates Raleigh special products (A32271) but can’t say for definite about 653 tubing authenticity. Frame is straight, lugged and pretty stiff would make a great commuter, less great hill climb bike...
Collection from Tooting Bec, any questions please let me know.
Cheers,
Alec
