Can't believe someone would dump this beauty but I'll gladly take if home and give it TLC. A friend spotted this road bike around his neighborhood and lucky pick it up immediately before it was snagged.
Its a Raleigh Super Grand Prix, manufactured in Canada in 1988 based on the serial number. Its in fairly good conditions with a few minor problems. This include:
- the right Wiedmann brake lever is detached.
- there is dent on the chainring guard. (Is it possible to fix this?)
- no cables to the rear derailluer.
- needs new bike grip. (The previous owner used regular yellow tape.)
All parts are still original, I presumed. I took it for a spin and it still rides quite smoothly. Once I clean/tune it up, this bad boy is ready to roll.
There is slight dent on the chainring guard but it still works.
