Raleigh: Reynolds 853.
http://s715.photobucket.com/user/millem ... 0853%20105
Professionally re-sprayed – painted to a very high standard indeed – and then professionally re-built using all new parts by LBS – seen very little use since then and always stored indoors.
55cm/21.5” seat tube c-t-c
55cm/21.5” top tube c-t-c
79.5cm/31.25” standover height
Frame No: WF98A0559, 853 stamped under b/b
Seat post and stem move freely and have been re-greased.
Braze-ons for 2 x bottle cages, 130mm rear spacing, vertical rear drop outs. Rear brake cable runs through top tube. Shimano STX Headset, Shimano sealed bearing b/b, Kalloy micro-adjust seat pin
Shimano 105 8-speed STI groupset: 52/42 chainset, 170mm cranks, 105 dual pivot brakes, 105 front & rear gear mechs
Wheels: hand built with Shimano 105 36-hole hubs, Ambrosio gold anodised rims, stainless spokes, Vittoria Open Corsa CXTT Kevlar clincher tyres (as new). 8-speed Shimano hyperglide cassette. Hubs spin beautifully, rim braking surfaces practically unworn, both wheels run perfectly true.
Cinelli bars, stem & Cinelli cork handlebar tape
Selle Italia non-slip Tri-Matic Gel leather saddle, no scuffs or wear marks
Paintwork has barely a mark anywhere - absolutely no dings or dents; all equipment virtually unmarked.
Raleigh built a number of 853 frames and sold them via their dealerships as frame only (and as special orders). The first two frame numbers indicate that this frame was built in 1998
I need to thin down my bike collection prior to house move and this one has to go as it’s just a tad too big for me. I’m in north Lancashire. Collection preferred, but will pack very carefully and ship in a bike box at cost. Please don’t hesitate to contact me via PM for any further information.
Reluctant sale and an absolute bargain Price reduced from £450 to £375 - so an even better bargain for someone.
