Raleigh Medale - 1979 - 23.5" with new tyres in Dewsbury

DCLane

Dirt Disciple
This is my Raleigh Medale from June 1979 - which I bought from an elderly lady (it was her husband's) but am not able to keep: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/162037651855 Start price £75

New tyres, tubes and bar tape fitted. It works fine with band-on 5 speed gearing. All other parts are original and he appeared fastidious about making sure everything was lubricated, although less so about cleaning off that lubricant. However - it's preserved all the parts well.
