!940's-1950's Raleigh Sportster
HI all,
I am new here and a few years ago found this Raleigh at a garage sale. It is a bit rough, some light surface rust. It has the dynamo in the front hub. It has the 3 speed Sturmey Archer rear hub with a build date of March 1949. Yes that is what I believe to be the original Brooks B-66 saddle on it....the leather it is in ratty-rustic condition, but the frame looks very nice...just a bit of surface rust here and there. The right side of the handle bars is slightly bent, but nothing major. The bike does not have the rack on the rear, but I can see no visible signs of one ever being there. Check out the pics of this classic. It also has Schwin grips on it. The serial number is 36963AZ.
I am thinking of selling this bike, but am not sure what it is worth.
Thanks for reading this post and any information will be greatly appreciated.

p.s. I have more pics if interested.
