Remember when you said (in the C-list Finds thread) you'd like to "...fixie this thing so it wouldn't breed?"
You're too late
Incedentally, to the other fellows on BF here: This is the first time I've tried Mafac Racers on any bike. My opinion on them? They make those garbage Weinmann 999s look GOOD...
-Kurt
P.S.: I found a C-8.5 silver 1974 Raleigh Sports at one of the LBS's - problem is, he wants $250. Would probably go down to $200. Missing rear reflector and chainguard, and that's it - otherwise, a beautiful example in 19.5". Including a photo.

So you got it. Paint looks good. What year?
If the Raliegh had everything on it, I'd pay around $200, but the chainguard is a deal breaker.

Have no idea what year it is - is there a serial chart for these things?
Well, perhaps I can dig up a silver chainguard for you. Possibly a rear reflector.
Take care,
