I responded to a CL ad the other night for this Raleigh Gran Sport. I didn't think that it would last or that I had a chance of getting it as the asking price was fairly low. Kinda figured it would be in poor condition but with a spit and polish maybe I could flip it. Met with the seller, I was the only one that responded to the ad, and struck a deal that was even better than expected. And the bike had been gone over pretty thoroughly. Wheels were true, gears adjusted, brakes adjusted with new brake pads installed. Its a winner. Took it for a short ride in the heat wave we had for one day, and its a real beauty.
I'd love to see what others have done to their Gran Sports, so post pics if you got 'em.
