Ridden 3 years and the rims and spokes were so fatigued that they had to be trashed? Methinks they were damaged by another mechanism.

I have an original 1972 Raleigh International, it was bought new in fayetteville
at scott garrow's in the fall of 1972 and ridden for about 3 years and parked.
it was overhauled in 1986 with campy grease and never rode. the rims and spokes
were removed due to fatigue, it has nos Mafac Competition brakes
the frame is about 58cm, both frame and fork are hand made with reynolds 531 tubing
with cut nervex chrome lug work and campy dropouts, bike is all original except
for the brake calipers and the seat, original dated 72" campagnolo nuovo record components
including the seatpost and large flange hubs, i have these extra parts to go with it
dated campy 72" rear and front derailleur, campy pump clips and nos campy bottom cable guide.
the original paint is in very nice condition and this bike has always been kept inside,
never raced and never wrecked, build your custom wheels with your rim and spoke combo,
as stated above the original mavic rims and spokes were fatigued and removed, meaning worn out,
to pop one worn out spoke means you will pop another one every 10 miles.
if building new rims and spokes are a big deal you don't need a bike like this
1000 is the asking price -- CASH TALKS-- if you want to trade, fine,
if you think your trade is worth top dollar than so is mine
you can always buy a cheaper model raleigh for 200 bucks, so please don't tell
me that they are all the same, they are not, they are nite/day different
