Not sure if these are old enough.
Trying to ID a couple of old bikes which have been sitting in my garage since the late 90s. they are both old MTBs and im trying to find more information about them. and find out if either would be able to be converted for use as an indoor training bike, and/or are either worth restoring
one has a fluro green Raleigh sticker on the front of the headtube, and Hanseatic sticker along the down tube
the other is a coventry eagle with Ventura on the down tube.
I cant add photos yet and the photos i have are not great i will try to get better pics when im able to get them out of the pile of scrap in my garage.

Bikes are okay, I guess.

Good luck. They don't sound like bikes we would have gotten in this market but we'd love to see pix.

If you want that kind of assessment you'll need to post more photos than just three close-ups of the decals. Post an overall photo of each bicycle, taken from the drive side. Also include individual pics of the major components (rear derailleur, crankset/front derailleur, brake caliper) and tubing decal (if present). This will should provide members with the necessary information to determine the approximate age, level and condition of the bicycles, after which they can comment on whether or not they are potential candidates for restoration or indoor trainer use. Photo assist...

It appears to be in the correct place. To help you we just need more, and better, photos.
