It is, yeah!

The finish has one major blemish though, on the backstay. I fell over onto a curb and dented the tube, messing up the paint there too. Thankfully the Tourist still got thick steel...

Wow, it's certainly been a long long while. After about 3 years I'm finally getting back into biking; I stopped because I wrecked an expensive bike in a crash (coupled with a long employment...

Well yeah, but I still like knowing what year my bikes were made in :lol:. This baby is exactly 40 years old now, and it seriously does not look it at all.

Oh I was just dumb; I was looking on the bottom bracket instead of the back of the seat tube. My S/N is ND7239806; it was actually made in March 1977! The old-style hockey-stick chainguard threw me...

My tax return came in, and I felt like treating myself for passing my third mate's license. Bought this Raleigh Tourist off eBay, and sent it in to be overhauled. It needed it badly, but now it's...

Well yeah, it's clearly a Raleigh frame. I'm just puzzled because it's apparently a Raleigh frame made years before the bike supposedly was, and it has a ton of old Dunelt parts on it. The Hercules...

Also, because it was such a lovely day out, here's another (better) picture of the Dunelt. I unfortunately had to replace the old mattress saddle the bike came with, because it snapped when I was...

Okay, this is weird. The cable guide pulley is only fastened on with a metal clamp, but it does have the other two things you mentioned.

And here's a decal that was on the top tube. I don't...

Hm, this is rather interesting. I went and hunted down my Dunelt's serial number, because I wanted to date it even more. It's got a seat tube SN, and it reads "58148A". No extra letter, no prefix,...

It's also worth saying and considering to check the Vintage Bicycle section of eBay. Some of the bikes are overpriced for what they are, but you've got a much wider selection. It's what I had to...

Fascinating! I had originally pegged as Raleigh-made, but the Hercules hub threw me for a whirl when I saw it, because I didn't think a Raleigh-made Dunelt would have a non-Sturmey Archer hub. It...

Bit of a lurker, first time poster. Just assembled an old Dunelt with a 23" frame myself off of eBay for $165. It doesn't have the shifter cable attached yet because Fedex damaged the indicator...
