Vintage 1978 Raleigh Magnum single speed road bike in very good condition.
The frame measures 23 inches from the centre of the bottom bracket to the top of the seat tube.
I have renovated this 45 year old bicycle bringing it back to former glory, while retaining its period charm and making it suitable for myself.
It has been completely stripped down and rebuilt, cleaning and servicing all the moving parts, and also giving it a few new parts. These are:
Rigida polished aluminum single speed rear wheel
New old stock 1980’s gold handlebar tape
KMC silver chain
Brown Inner/outer brake cables
Good used parts:
Shabby Brooks saddle that’s ties into the period and style of bicycle.
Michelin World Tour gumwall tyres
Dicta freewheel
Wellgo polished platform pedals
The chrome and paintwork has marks/blemishes, but the bike has had a thorough clean and the paintwork given a polish.
I have literally only covered 2 miles on this bicycle since its reincarnation. This was for a test ride and it rode beautifully.
Im only selling as I have so many bikes and my enjoyment lies in restoring them and not actually riding them.
Everything moving freely and as it should, and it is ready for many miles of smiles. Please study photos for condition.
Please check out my other auctions if you fancy something a little different.
Collection only within one week of purchase from Chingford, NE London, E4. I can also meet at my local train stations.
Current Price: £265.00
