Just picked up my Raleigh ebay purchase

[Jones]

Just got back from picking up my ebay Raleigh although it was described as nos you never know what its going to be like especially when they post just one quite dark picture of it :?

But its faultless its never even had a wheel in the dropouts

I also get a bit nervous when frames are sold with a seatpost and bb in the frame but both came out very easily and the bb is an unused XTR so I think the frame was a real bargain now

 

[jango]

hmmmm...that looks very nice!!

 

[Hilts]

ah, the little known 'Raleigh Fred perry'

Do you have to ride it in Reebok kickers ?



Looks good, and at the price you paid, can't be bad..

Very nice , i've not seen a Raleigh like that before.

 

[cherrybomb]

I like that.

 

[gump]

That does look good. They did some ok bikes at times.

Frame

That will be as good a ride as any hardtail bike ever made, you've totally scored a bargain, nice paint job too! They were always never taken seriously, which is why they got into trouble, but never made bad frames, the geometry was always spot on.

 

[gump]

ok, seems everyone knows how much this was except me.

Would you mind enlightening me?

That frame looked real good, I would liked to have that, the paint job is excellent, hope you show some pics when it's completed soon.

Cheers everyone going to start the build today

I paid £150 for frame with unused RSP branded seatpost, FSA headset and XTR BB
