Hi All
I recently was asked to clear a deceased relatives garage and came across this rather neglected bike hidden under sheets. It has Ken Bird decals on it but a Raleigh Badge on the steerer tube. I've done some research and can't find anything that suggests Ken Bird made frames for Raleigh or Raleigh did a Ken Bird model . I can't find a serial number on it. To be honest the frame doesn't look like a Bird frame particularly the seat tube and stays. It is 5 speed with a Huret rear mech that has completely round jockey wheels - no teeth. I'm thinking its a Raleigh frame that has had the decals added for some reason?? Any help would be appreciated.
