Nothing exotic but very clean:
This red 12-speed Raleigh showed up on the local VarageSale about ten days ago for $5 Canadian (about $4.05US) with a warped rear wheel.
I was the first responder and offered $20 for it to show I was serious and to induce a quick reply before the responses piled up.
Isn't it pretty ?
Tange seamless cro-moly frame, Sugino crankset, Suntour AR, Weinmann brakes, Araya wheel set.
Just a shade tall for me but light for its size.
I like it and have been riding it all week around the neighbourhood. A very easy rider.

Nice nab! I’d need a step ladder. Hope it fits you well and is a fun rider!

Very nice. All I seem to find listed anymore are rusty old department store bikes that start out with "I know what I have".
