    For Sale: Raleigh R700

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    This is a 1999 bike - all Ultegra. It's a double with STI. I love the color - purple! However, I haven't been riding it at all (and never really did) because 1) it's too small and 2) it's a double. Just never felt comfortable on it. I seriously doubt I did more than 300 miles tops on this bike.

    I'll throw in the saddle (Terry women's sport - hope it works better for you than me!) and pedals (Wellgo Look Clones).

    It's too pretty a bike to just be house decoration

    New 1250 - asking 800 obo.

    PM me an email addy, and I'll more send pics!

    Dropping price...

    New Bike Friday is getting here in a couple of weeks, and I really need to thin the stable a bit...

    So...$750. If that sounds high, make me an offer. I'd *really* like for this bike to go to a good home

    Whoops, guess the size would help, huh?

    It's a 50 cm frame -

    I'm 5'4", and this one is a bit too small for me, but I usually ride an abnormally large frame given my height.

    So.....

    The bike Fridays are due to arrive in the next couple of weeks, and this bike really needs to go before they do.

    I'll drop the price to $700 or best offer. I'd really like to see it go to a good home

    Let's see -- I've had five at one time (down to four now). I am sure others here could beat that, though!!!

    You can't have too many - so long as you enjoy them all! I currently have 4 and another on the way (Bike Friday!).

    This one is still, however, available to go to *someone else's* home

    Then I can resume drooling at Rivendells..... (I do live in a condo after all...)

    Better stop, girl! Luckily, the price is a little high for me. I just got a custom 'cross bike from Luna so I've spent most of my bike budget for '06.
