i just got a 1950 one i have no idea what one it is but its army green front and rear lights, and i picked it up for 30 bucks, it has the old key hole in the froks in the front i gues thats how they locked it up back then, its mint, hasnt been ridden in almost 52 years, its 60 years old now so its awesome id say its an awesome find.

I have a raleigh sprite 27 with a 5 speed, the video of it is on my youtube page, would you mind giving me an idea of what year it is, Im guessing it is a 1970's model.

I have three Raleigh Sports 3 speed bicycles and one three speed Scan.

I ride them all in rotation. All of the Raleighs rear hubs are in good order, but I

wonder where I'd get a hub rebuilt. Nothing lasts forever. The Scan is my junker

winter bike.

I wear regular clothes when I ride, and sometimes use a pants clip.
