Is this a Raleigh of sorts?
Saw this one. It is a conglomeration of rusted parts and frame (especially front fork chrome), but has some interesting rusty pieces.
It looks Raleigh-ish, but Motobecane, Gitane, Peugeot also came to mind. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/dQUAA...~ua/s-l500.jpg https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/HpoAA...ub/s-l1600.jpg https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/S5UAA...ud/s-l1600.jpg https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/PWkAA...uj/s-l1600.jpg https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/PWwAA...um/s-l1600.jpg https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/IJ0AA...uo/s-l1600.jpg https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/IfYAA...ur/s-l1600.jpg https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/eOQAA...ut/s-l1600.jpg |
Quite the mix of bits. Simplex dropouts point to France rather than Raleigh. Feels Peugeot-ish. What does the bottom bracket show? Head lugs might clarify whether it’s a Motobecane or not. Looks to be a decent frame….

Not really too interested in it...but the Brooks and Mafac stuff is cool. |

appears it may have begun life as a Peugeot PX-10E circa 1970 original fittings yet in residence: headset, stem, bar, brakes, saddle & possibly downtube cable guide ----- |
Looks like the Simplex derailleur hanger has been cut off.

----- the MAEDA mounting plate employed here drops the gear mech's jockey pulley down six mm from what it would be with a Campag, for example ----- |
