Raleigh Bomber 3-speed black - SOLD

[nickvonfiction]

“Probably the meanest bike on the streets”, as claimed by the early 80s advert, here is a complete Raleigh Bomber in good working order. This bad boy is the three-speed version with hub gears (shifting properly) and all parts are original as far as I know except the seatpost and the pedals. The original seatpost was pretty tatty and was replaced with a longer model than the original so is more forgiving to those with longer legs. The original pedals were knackered, but these are equivalent replacements. They aren’t in great condition to look at and there is one dent on one of them but they spin perfectly and are perfectly serviceable.
The paintwork is in very good nick with just a couple of chips and one sratch to one of the decals.
I'm in north London - Stoke Newington (N16) and would rather not post, but let's see how it goes.
Not sure what these things go for so how about £150.

My Dad bought me one as a kid and I hated it.

Wanted a bmx!

Kind of like them now though :roll:

i had one when i was 12. loved it! i got the metal work teacher to weld up the freewheel to make it a fixed gear and could pull the longest wheelies and cycle backwards. the best bit was me and my cousin would each get on one side on a pedal each and ride it two up like a pair of pistons going up and down. it was hilarious!
