1953 Raleigh Sports - Dynamo Lighting, Enclosed Chaincase

It wasn't easy to find, but eventually two popped up on ebay and I was able to choose one that was intact and all original - my 'new' 1953 Raleigh Sports!

It's in original condition, with beautiful original paint and markings. However, it needs attention before it can be properly used - a tune up, new tires, etc. I also need to find and install a rack. I'll take you through the bike in detail in a future post...
