Delbiker,
I am getting older and smaller, and this was a great bike for me. When I first got it it needed repairs, and some braze-ons added. I got to spend torch time that was not a cutting torch, so yeah good times with an old friend, but alas I am too short to enjoy it, so it does need a new happy home. My home here in Bloomington is on a city lot without a large storage capacity and cheap real estate is over $5 per SF per month so sometimes you gotta just let go. Not to worry though, it is being replaced by this smaller vintage frame and fork,which will equipped with clinchers and Record group. The exception will likely be a set of Modolo Speedy brakes from the Box 'O Crap so it can wear the boc logo with some pride. As a plus this Raleigh can fit fenders and touring tires.
Smiles, MH
