So i picked this Raleigh Super Course Mk. II as a bike to commute to school on, just wondering if anyone had an idea about what its worth is. Totally left the pictures back at school as I'm at home for a break, so I'll try and post when I can get them. Thanks for any input!

What's the condition of the finish? Original components? Size? Your answers to those three questions would help pin down value between $50 and $350.

Based off my memory, I believe that all the components were original, except for the seat. It had weinmann center pull breaks and some type of suntour derailleurs, though I don't know the exact model off the top of my head. The paint is in decent condition, although there are some small rust dots on the rear of the frame, that I'm afraid may have spidered under the paint. It's also a 56cm frame or thereabouts.

I have a ’74 SC Mk2 that I believe is all original except for the saddle, (it has a Wrights leather saddle instead of the proper Brooks B-17 narrow). Anyhow, original components include Huret Challenger RD, Nervar crank, Weinmann brakes, and Nisi alloy rims. I love mine, it’s a great rider.
