1962 Raleigh Sports Bicycle

I'm ready to sell my long-loved, nearly all original & unrestored Raleigh Sports bike from 1962. A smooth, handsome ride that gets a lot of attention. TLDR: Sturmey Archer 3 Speed, Brooks Saddle, Dynamo Headlight. Rides well, some cosmetic damage ( see pics ) Restore or enjoy as is! Detailed Description: Only three things have been changed; Because I used it for short commutes, I added a Sanyo Dynamo Headlight with a generator (not pictured), a new set of brakes, after the original pads wore out, and a newer Brooks Saddle for comfort & safety. It was purchased without the kitbag it was sold with originally ( see photo #10 ). At 63, it does have some cosmetic damage, most notably a dent on the backside of the front fender and a small gash on the chain guard. It LOOKS used, because I really did enjoy riding it, but without a little elbow grease, it's no show bike ;) It's got the original Sturmey Archer 3 Speed Gear Hub which was rebuilt last year, shifts smoothly. The pump also works in case you blow a flat. An iconic part of bicycling history. These are hard to find at this age in the states. A fun restoration project or a weekend ride that gets looks and respect. $500. Feel free to ask any questions. Thanks for looking.
