I am hoping some list members can give any information on a Raleigh frame.Its the model "Gran Course" Circa 1984, size 21.1/2" , 531c tubing both frame and forks. Invoice cost of frame was £141-00 GBP from E.G.Bates, Barking Road, Plaistow London.
I have never been a Raleigh enthusiast and never owned one or followed their exploits over the years.Therefore I'm looking for further information behalf of an family who wish me to sell the complete bike.But before entering into any advertising this machine I like to find out more about this particular model and if it is recognisable to any of the members.I understand it is fully equipped with period parts , those will only be revealed when I view the bike in the coming week. A picture shows it to be in a immaculate condition with all these period parts intact.
So folks , if you can help me out with some information on this particular model in question it will be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance, fingers crossed!
