Looky what I happened to find on craigslist:
She's a 1971/1972 Raleigh SuperCourse and is completely original except for the seat post bolt. The raleigh tires, the bar tape, Brooks B15, everything is original and barely a scratch on her! I was lucky enough that my Raleigh loving friend was willing to go retrieve her since I was crazy busy with work, but it was such a crazy deal, one of us had to get it! Once he picked her up, he was sure I'd love her and commented that she could be a museum piece. Now I'm hesitant to touch her, but I think she needs to be ridden for once in her life (the tires look brand new).
I'm pondering albatross or velo orange's montmarte bars, but I'll see how the original bars and I get along. Need to clean her up, true wheels, get some new tires (and put the Raleigh ones aside), swap out for my B72... Ideas?
