late 70's/ early 80's Raleigh Sports
Hi everyone,
I got this from my Aunt. It is a ladies cruiser, even though it says Sports. Apparently it's an English built Raleigh as evidenced by a sticker. (I'd post pics but I'm not allowed yet.) It's brown. Simply looking to get a value of it.
Thanks!

Of course, much of a bike's value is condition and local market. Low-step frames can be very popular with urban crowds as they make nice commuters and can be popular with older folks because of the ease of mounting and riding them. Brown isn't too popular of a color today, but can be nice on an older bike as a period color. I'm imagining a basic Raleigh 3-speed low-step frame, and I would imagine the value would be between $50 and $150 depending on your market and the condition of the bike.
