For sale: Raleigh Lenton Marque III. Reynolds 531.

Has a tiny ding in the top tube but it's so small, it won't photograph properly.

Seat post and stem both move freely.

Bottom bracket nice and smooth.

4 Speed Sturmey Archer gears all work.

Tyres are shot and need replacing but currently hold air.

Rims are in need of a good clean but they run true with no dents or damage.

Bearings all seem to fine as well.

Ripe for a mild restoration, will be a lovely bike for someone.

Not asking a kings' ransom for it as I want it to go to someone that will hopefully cherish it. No idea of it's real worth but I'd like to see it put to good use.

I'm 5 feet 8 inches tall and it's set up for my height in the picture.

I rode this today and I'm still here to tell the tale !

Cash on collection please.

From Gloucester.

£30

Changed the saddle out for something similar but much more comfortable than what was on it.

I know it's much better as I took it for a spin today.

Rides surprisingly nice for a 50's/60's bike.
 
This one was £15 but I've put a bit of work into it. Rides very nicely, out on it tonight,
but for a ropey rear wheel that I have spent hours trying to true (radially). 20220425_192338.jpg
