1952 Raleigh Sports Bike Duno Battery Pack oil bath CG Original - $200 (Churchland Suffolk)
 1952 Raleigh Sports with Duno Hub glass lense head light oil bath chain guard and Battery Pack. Very original bike, seat leather is hard, original paint looks very nice bike, has original rear John Bull tire. Some peppering on chrome and needs the shifter insert for cable on the frame clamp installed. Has not been on the road in 30 years. $200

I dont know what the hell he's saying about the shifter cable.  I've gotten really into full chain cases lately.  Like I've said I'm a sucker for Raleigh styling.  The close up pictures reveal some minor rust that should scrub off and some amazingly solid paint.   For $200 and some elbow grease you could be the most twee cyclist on the block.  Will make a great Sunday rider for someone.
