For Sale Raleigh Blue Ridge Mountain Bike SOLD

[SpinThoseLegs89]

1990 ish (could be 89/900, Raleigh Blue Ridge Mountain Bike, Reynolds 531 tubing. Laser 400 wheels with original CST amber wall, 21 speed Shimano Exage Groupset, Shimano Biopace crankset, Turbo saddle with Raleigh finishing kit. rides great and surprisingly light for a 33 year old bike, , fits me great at 5 ft 8., so i reckon people between 5 ft 6 and 6 ft 1.











Only bad point is that it needs a new shifter and front mech, rear shifter is a little sticky but works, did have plans to turn this into a gravel bike, but don't have the heart to take her apart as its a beautiful bike, the paint has a great shine and even has the original rust free bar and stem and handlebar grips as well as the original bottle cage, and the seat post is not seized, has usual marks and scratches but no rust.











Looking for £200 ono (i know this might be a bit steep, so am open to offers)







I am based in Oxfordshire, just off the A34, but can ship for extra.

Hi, this is a message for the person selling the Blueridge, can you please tell me;

What is the frame size?
Does the rear STI shifter / derailleur work?
Any frame damage?
Any rim damage?
On the top tube, is the paint lacquer flaking?

thanks
Richard

Hi there Ricky, im not sure frame size, i think its a 18 inch as it fits me fine at 5 ft 8, can take a measurement when I return home next week.

rear sti shifter is a little sticky but works fully so could do with a new cable, and changes well, i have ridden the bike about ten miles since owning it, there is no skipping or slipping, and the brakes are sharp and work really well

there is no frame or rim damage, its in amazing condition for a 33 year old bike as well as there is no paint lacquer peel.

Thanks very much, please let me know on the frame size. It might be too small for me, but depends on the geometry. if you let me know seat, top and down tube lengths. thanks
