This Raleigh is a vintage steel road bike from Nottingham England. The bike has many original parts and sports a Sturmey Archer 3-speed. This classic has the original fenders, chain guard and don’t forget to check out the original head badge! The chainring sports the classic raleigh herons. The green finish has a bit of patina here and the entire frame and fork have been cleaned and polished and the finish looks great! Our very own Cap’n Jonny took this bike down to a bare frame and fork and meticulously rebuilt the entire bike and servicing all bearings with new greatest and installing new cables and housing. The saddle is also a legit vintage leather unit that is in great shape.
This bike is a true classic that just oozes with vintage driz.
The bike sports the original rear rack and full fenders. The bike has been fitted with new brake pads as well. The drivetrain is a Sturmey Archer 3-speed.
The bike has been re-fitted with newer 26x1-⅜” tires. This bike is completely rideable for someone who understands the limitations of an over 50-year-old classic. This bike should fit riders in the 5'6" to 5'10" range. Note, with older bikes, the front wheel can require a little effort to remove.
