I posted a thread last week asking for info on a bike I got that had Raleigh 502 tubing. I didn't get any responses, and have found out nothing thru Internet search. I picked up the bike today and thought I would post what I found. The bike is a 1985 based on component age. It has Suntour derailleurs, Kinlin steel rims, and is labeled as Raleigh of America, assemblrd in Taiwan, The hubs are labeled Raleigh sealed bearings, as is the BB. The bike without a seat weighs 29#.
