Raleigh Zenith 1984 Reynolds 501

fruiteater

Retro Newbie
Seat-tube c-c is 54cm.

This is in nice used condition. There is micro blistering on the frame and fork and on some of the chrome components as can be seen. This has been in the family for a long time. So far as we can remember this is all original (bar the saddle, tyres and pedals). There's virtually no visible wear to the chainrings or rims. The bike hasn't racked up many miles.

I'm surprised the paint has blistered like it has, it's never been ridden in the winter really. I guess this blistering is just a result of the bike being stored in the garage most of its life.

The seatpost and stem are not seized.

I'm looking for £200 plus £20 postage which I think is fair. If you require any specific images of components let me know.

This is perfectly rideable as it is, cables are nice and free etc. I would recommend a strip down of the headset, hubs an BB though. I'd clean out and replace the existing grease. I expect the grease has gone quite hard and lost a little lubricity!
