Dutch Made Raliegh?
 

Please see the attached ebay auction. Anyone know what model Raliegh this might be?

It's a Grand Prix, and it ain't no 1990. Couldn't be newer than '78 or '79.

Hmm, something fishy going on. Looks like the same seller as the Made in France Super Course based on the pics on all of his bike auctions. Different seller ID though. Check it out:

Look up Gazelle and Grand Prix in a BF search and you'll find a few mentions. After Gazelle was acquired by Raleigh they made some Raleigh badged bikes. Downtube sticker says "made by Gazelle".

What kind of tubing are these Gazelle Grand Prix's made from?

TI Raleigh 20-30, same as the English ones. TI owned both Gazelle and Raleigh.

One Gazelle-made Raleigh-badged Grand Prix coming up:

How about that 18# claimed weight for a 29# bike - probably just a typo :rolleyes:

Maybe he meant kilograms. :D

Well, now he's back - with the same "18 lbs" claim and a different set of photos. Even his misspelling of "communting" has changed! What d'ya suppose this is about? I guess he's pretending to be a famous race car driver, out of his element describing a vehicle without a motor.

Sorry, the ebay URL is insanely long this time, but it's auction 220086969989
