Hi All
All this talk about Mixtie framesets!..........Brings to mind a batch of early to Mid '80s Raleigh complete 531 Mixtie Framesets with ''MATCHING FENDERS!'' They are as new as you can get just that they were built a long time ago.10 framesets is in this lot but 2 are already spoken for. I'm still working with the seller and I think I can offer them up for around $ 200.- to $ 225.- a pop! Anyway, when they do arrive the CR list will have first go at them.
Sizes will be known once the arrive................Looks to be around the 23rd?
Hey!................Big Bob!................your first in line............And one is for my girl Nadine. the other 8 will be up for grabs.
BC Baron C...............And the gang!! Renaissance cycles, Eindhoven Holland........................Where we're as busy as Bees in a Bee hive!!
