Somebody asked about the Rixe. Here it is as it sits now. I'm thinking it's from the "Raleigh built some of them" era, so That's kind of where I'm going. It might be comparable to a low end Raleigh. I also have the fenders and a spindly looking rear carrier. All the wiring seems to be there for the generator--- maybe I'll use it as a charging system and put LED bulbs in the lights. That's a spoke lock on the seat stay--- fortunately came with the key! It was originally a three speed, I'm fairly sure. The decals are trash, but I can get a set on Ebay that will replace most of them.
