Bikes: Giant Excursion, Raleigh Sports, Raleigh R.S.W. Compact, Motobecane? and about 20 more! OMG

Build your own. the frame does look a bit like a vintage Raleigh (I have several of them).

The chain wheel is bugging me, I have seen that design somewhere but can't place it. Unfortunately the low res picture doesn't help much.

Run searches for Porteur Bikes, City Bikes, and possibly Randonneur. All are similar type bikes. I have seen touring bikes with a similar build too.
