Retro Newbie
For sale is a pearl white (sometimes referred to as "oyster" white) Raleigh Corsa road bike from 1984 originally, hand built in Leicester I think, but restored to almost mint condition this year by the previous owner. I only rode it in dry weather, which wasn't very often. 
The reason for sale is, I'm moving into a smaller flat, with a smaller bike shed and I also have 2 other bikes, so reluctantly, I have to say good bye to this beauty.
The dimensions of the frame:
From the center of the crank to the top of the
seat tube it's 24''1/2 (62-63cm) and the top tube from the center of the seat
tube to the centre of the head tube is 22''1/2 (57cm), so it's suitable for a
taller rider.
Specs:
It has Reynolds 501 tubing throughout (very light steel tubes,
including the fork), Shimano 105 Golden Arrow components throughout, and a
Brooks Professional saddle. The lights and D-lock are included in the sale.
It is a nice classic in excellent condition and a pretty rare bike.
Asking price is £200.00 or next best offer. I can arrange shipping at your own risk and expense, but it would be best if you pick it up from Loughborough.
