1970 Raleigh Professional time capsule
I just got this 1970 Raleigh Professional Limited Edition. It has not been used in 30 years, so there is a lot of dry rot and accumulated grime. The pictures show exactly as I got it. It even came with a certificate and letter from Raleigh, sent from England.
I will be busy with a complete disassembly and cleanup. The spokes are rusted, so the wheels need to be rebuilt. I will need a 100mm or so stem, a Brooks Pro saddle, new tires and world logo hoods. Enough work to keep me busy for a couple months, can't wait to get started.
