Raleigh International frame and fork for sale. Either 1974 or 1975 - I'll check if that makes a difference to a potential buyer. 58 c-t seat tube, 55.5 c-c top tube, 40.25" wheelbase, 123mm rear. Beautiful champagne color with half chrome socks front and rear, chromed Nervex Pro headlugs and fork crown. This one has "good brazing" when compared to the horror stories this list has discussed on occasion i.e. no gaps, voids, blobs, etc. Overall in very excellent condition - probably among the best used, original paint/decal example around. Just a few small/minor scratches to paint and some small blems to decals. Overall look when built is near perfect. Of course Reynolds 531 DB throughout and a really sweet gentle bend along most of the length of the forks. Chrome is outstanding with just one tiny pit on the fork crown the size of a sharpened pencil tip.
Price is $295.- plus actual shipping but will happily deliver to Monson, CT swap this Sunday for free.
Also for sale to the buyer of the frame is a bar/stem/brake combo. Includes a set of 3ttt Competizionne bars (41.5cm e-e) and stem (10cm) in excellent condition with nice white cloth tape (some dirt from use) and proper slotted Weinmann brake levers with nice white Carlton hoods. Levers are polished. Proper Weinmann calipers minus the brake pads are also included and in very excellent condition.
Price for this combo is $50.-
Pictures of the bike built up as I used to ride her can be found on the wooljersey site under "Eric Elman's Bicycles."
