Subject: [CR]ebay outing - Raleigh Pro Mk IV fork

Raleigh Pro Mark IV fork on ebay! item # 200143610004 Reynolds 531, fully sloping crown. Chrome in darn good condition, new but repainted, paint chips due to shop wear, 218 mm steerer length, no slot cut for headset washer.

I am the seller, does that make me related?

Here's the story: (and I'm stickin' to it!) Back when I was selling Raleigh I was given a damaged Pro Mk IV frame. I bought a replacement fork from Raleigh and had a friend who wanted to get into the frame building biz repair the frame. He resprayed the new fork so it would match the not quite Raleigh Blue that he used on the frame. Frame repair result was rather Raleigh Pro meets Peugeot UO-8 built late Friday afternoon following a three vino lunch. Trust me, you DON'T want the frame, but the fork is sweet.

Cheers!
