1984 Raleigh Record Sprint - 60cm

[pajohns6]

Hi.

Reluctantly selling my 1984 Raleigh Record Sprint. I purchased it 7 years ago and set about restoring it. It's 95% finished but has yet to see the tarmac. I feel it needs to go to a better home!

It's in fantastic condition with only minor paint blemishes and a few marked decals.

Apologies for the arty photos! Got a bit carried away when I finished the project. Can provide more photos if required.

All original apart from:
- Saddle - replaced with a Selle San Marco Rolls Due (90s model unfortunately)
- Brand new MKS pedals
- Tyres - Raleigh CST 700 X 25c Traditional Gumwall Tan
- Spokes - new spokes
- Bar tape - black Velox Cotton
- Lion Bellworks Brass Bell - steerer mounted

Just requires the wheels truing and its good to go.

Frame: Raleigh Record Sprint 1984
Colour: Gloss Black
Frame Number: NE 412834
Frame Size: 60cm (23.5")

- Reynolds 501 aero tubing
- Sakae engraved gold bars
- Weinmann drilled 500 gold brakes
- Sakae gold cranks
- Weinmann black anodised 700c QR wheels (front wheel still has painted brake surface, rear has worn).
- 12 speed

Based in Sheffield. Collection only or delivery to South Yorkshire.

£200.

Many thanks,

Pete

Re:

That is a beauty ! You've done a great job.
I'd get the wheels trued for £10 at your LBS and then sell it on eBay, for more than you are asking here. If you pick the right weekend, eBay only charge £1 comission, so you won't be giving them 10% of your bike for the pleasure.

Hi All.

I've popped the bike on eBay now. Wheels trued up (thanks Dirt Disciple) and sale ends at 2100 tomorrow.

Thanks for looking.
