This is a bike that I would buy. Cleaned and sorted it would be a sturdy and attractive bike. The fact that it is less common than its Raleigh cousins adds interest as well. When we minimize the values of solid old bikes, we often sentence them to the scrap bin. An example; Raleigh DL-1 are heavy tall and to a degree awkward yet bring hundreds of dollars. This bike will likely ride nicer and be much lighter and it too is made of Hi-Ten steel. Lets keep the "All Steel Bikes" on the road. I have a very clean example of a Robin Hood Sports and it gets lots of attention. Good luck with whatever you decide.
