Other details: Another cool Raleigh, the Record Sprint, with nice oval to round Aerospace reynolds tubing, giving it a nice sleak & strong frame, nice graphics on the decals, very space age! so it could be a 1970's bike, but I assume 80's (not sure?). Offered in good ready to ride condition, showing signs of use and age; paintwork is generally good, but has minor scratches, chips and rubs, decals are good, all appears straight and true, no cracks, dents or rewelds. I have tried to keep this as original as I found it, but have had to renew a spoke on the rear wheel, re-greased the bearings on the rear cassette and fitted some old tyres & tubes I had lying around, they are good, but will need renewal sooner rather than later, I have also fitted new handlebar tape, in place of the old rubber stuff that had perished. So a nice bike, ready to go, good for everyday use, but you may want to renew some parts (depending on your requirements?)
