Which Raleigh is this?
hey all,
Looking but not buying, can’t figure which model this Raleigh is. Not certain how original it is either.

Definitely a Raleigh folder, twenty probably. Can’t pinpoint the year but might be from the 80’s? Did they have SS in this or is it just hard to see the 3 speed hub, shifter.
Missing the chain cover.

Definitely looks like a Raleigh Twenty frame; the horizontal hinge is unique. But I thought they had a Raleigh style fork crown? The crank is unfamiliar, too. Wheels are the larger 20" size (20 x 1⅜, aka 451).

The seller informed me it’s a single geared model. I wonder if it is an English made model or overseas. Oh well...

A friend has a Phillips Twenty and it has the same fork and chainring, but this one definitely says Raleigh on the ST. Hmm

Looking at images of the Twenties I found one which has the fork and another with the crank. Both late 70’s and early 80’s.
